Sapling & Flint 10kt Gold Maple Pendant

描述

Wáhta (WÚH-tuh) in the Mohawk language, has become synonymous with Canada worldwide. The multi-coloured jewel of the autumn draws awe-inspired audiences the world over to the woods' edge, and has been a producer of sugar maple for Indigenous peoples of North America since time immemorial. To the Mohawk people; the Sugar Maple is referred to as the Leader of the Trees. On our ceremonial calendar it serves as a celebration of the New Year as its sap is the first harvest of the growing season. The hard wood fashions strong tools and burns hot on the coldest nights. It is a role model for the medicine people who look to its far-reaching sheltering canopy as a reminder to be a physical & spiritual support for the people.
