Embrace the spiritual energy of Maori culture with our fern pendant. It is 3 cm long. The fern is one of the most recognized national symbols of New Zealand. Since the end of the 19th century, our fern has been proudly worn by our sports teams, honoured by our soldiers, and used to represent our country around the world. But why is the fern so special? Maori hunters and warriors used the silver underside of fern leaves to find their way. When bent, the fronds captured the light of the moon and lit a path through the forest. The fern has been the symbol of New Zealand’s national identity since the 1880s. For the Maori, the elegant form of the slings symbolized strength, stubborn resistance and lasting power. For the pākehās (New Zealanders of non-Maori descent), the fern symbolized their attachment to their homeland. The fern was worn by New Zealand troops in South Africa (1898-1902), then the fern symbol was used to identify New Zealand soldiers during the two world wars. The fern adorns the graves of our fallen, and has been worn by our national rugby teams since 1888.
