A Ouénite coin-bead necklace from La Korrigane's voyage. Ouen Island, south of Grande Terre in New Caledonia, was traditionally renowned for the exploitation of "jade", which is more precisely nephrite throughout New Caledonia, and from which are carved the blades of axes, adzes and the famous Kanak monstrance axes. We know, thanks to the Société des Océanistes, which has carried out several research campaigns and confirmed this in a detailed study on the subject, that the beads on the coin necklaces are not carved from nephrite but from a different, softer stone. This is a crystalline rock composed mainly of anorthite, with a small component of amphibole, ranging from pale to darker green with white veins and small emerald-green flecks, specific to Île Ouen and also identified in the Rivière Bleue basin, called Ouénite (1911, Lacroix). It is oral tradition, essential to Kanak culture, that recalls the importance of Ouen Island as one of the high points and historical source of the exploitation of this stone for pearl coins, and that led the oceanists on their way to this island. In Jean Roudillon's notes: "Collier de femme de chef.
