Description

This beautiful little star pendant necklace is cast in 100% recycled sterling silver and measures approximately 1.5cm across. It is finished with a solid sterling silver 45cm chain.

The star is hand-stamped with the word “Aroha” on the reverse meaning love and compassion. If you prefer a different word (up to 5 letters per star) you can select to have your pendant necklace personalised for free.  Just enter the word you would like in the box provided when you place your order.

This necklace represents the star (and constellation) Matariki or Pleiades. In many indigenous cultures world-wide, the constellation Pleiades is important. Matariki signifies the beginning of the Māori New Year when it rises above the horizon at dawn in mid-winter. It is a time of reflection about the year past, preparation for the year ahead, and a chance to celebrate the value of friends, family and community.
