🍏🌿 Kahurangi Pounamu – The Precious Light of the Ancestors

Kahurangi Pounamu shines with a bright, vibrant apple green — a hue that captures the life force and vitality of Aotearoa’s sacred forests. Revered as one of the most treasured forms of pounamu, Kahurangi holds a special place in Māori tradition as a taonga tuku iho, a precious gift passed down through generations, carrying the mana and wairua of tūpuna (ancestors).

At Crystillery, we honour Kahurangi as a stone of renewal, hope, and sacred promise. It symbolizes the purest connection to the land — a living bridge between the spiritual and the earthly realms. Its bright glow reflects the clear sky of Te Tai Poutini, inviting the wearer to walk with confidence, grace, and respect.

Spiritually, Kahurangi Pounamu is believed to:

• Amplify mana, vitality, and spiritual strength
• Serve as a powerful guardian and protector in life’s journeys
• Inspire hope, growth, and clarity of purpose
• Connect deeply with ancestral wisdom and sacred lineage

Kahurangi Pounamu is not just a stone — it is a radiant symbol of life, light, and legacy. To wear it is to carry forward the enduring spirit of Aotearoa and those who came before.
