Hei Matau - Pounamu #1
Hei Matau - Pounamu #1
This stunning Hei Matau is carved from Kawakawa stone.
Hei Matau is a symbol of prosperity and safety when traveling over the water. The fish hook is present throughout Māori culture, whether it is in reference to Tangaroa the God of the Sea, or Maui who caught Te Ika a Maui with the jawbone of his kaumatua (some stories say his grandfather and others his grandmother). Regardless it is a powerful taonga.
Approximate dimensions: W 33mm x L 50mm
