Orion Constellation and Swamp Kauri Pendant

This unique pendant has been lovingly crafted from a gorgeous piece of NZ's own Swamp Kauri and lovingly inlaid with Copper, Aluminium and Brass to represent the star cluster known as Orion.  Orion is depicted from Greek Mythology as being a hunter in the night sky, while wielding a shield in the right hand and a sword in the left. This constellation has two of the brightest stars in the sky known as Rigel and Betelgeuse

It is a perfect pendant for a star lover, whilst connecting them to our gorgeous country with Native Wood. Swamp Kauri which is also known as Ancient Kauri, comes from Kauri trees that have been buried and preserved in peat swamps for between 800 and 60,000 years making it such a special part of NZ's heritage. This pendant is larger in size - but still fits comfortably in the palm of a hand.
