Expertly handcrafted from genuine New Zealand greenstone, also known as pounamu, this whopper 11.5cm (4 1/2') side hung Maori tiki necklace is a stunning piece of traditional Maori jewellery.
With its sacred symbol and authentic materials, this necklace is sure to make a statement and add cultural significance to any outfit.
With native paua shell eyes, it is a beautiful piece, and it hangs from a long braided neck cord with sliding knots, so you can position the necklace where you want on your chest.
The Tiki depicts the first mortal born to the Gods. The Tiki is a good luck charm, and believed to give the wearer clarity of thought and great inner knowledge. It is also a strong fertility symbol, with the hands on the loins symbolising fertility.
