KORU
Koru
The
koru (
Maori for "loop") is a spiral shape based on the shape of a new unfurling
silver fern frond and symbolizing new life, growth, strength and peace. It is an integral symbol in
Maori art,
carving and
tattoos. The circular shape of the koru helps to convey the idea of perpetual movement while the inner coil suggests a return to the point of origin.
