• Avoid impact – While durable, natural materials can still chip or break.

• Store safely – Keep your taonga in a soft pouch when not in use.

• Respect its spirit – Many pieces carry cultural and spiritual significance. Gift or wear them with intention and aroha.

With care and respect, your taonga will remain a lasting symbol of protection, strength, and connection.
