It is believed that bone jewelry from New Zealand worn with respect, or given and received with love, will take on part of the spirit of those who wears or handles it, so it becomes a kind of spiritual link between people spanning time, and distance. Bone jewelry that has been worn by family or tribal members over many generations contains the spirit of all of those people and is truly a powerful and great treasure.
New Zealand Bone Jewelry includes such iconic designs as the Tiki. Many are considered good luck charms when worn. In some regions New Zealand bone jewelry is also regarded as a fertility symbol. The popular Tiki design is sacred to New Zealand Maori people, representing the first man and his strong links with the sea. The Hei Tiki is often referred to as 'Tiki '... 'Hei' means to wear around ones neck. The Koru style is a circular design which represents peace, tranquility, and a strong sense of regrowth and new beginnings. The Hei Matau (fish hook) is another traditional design indicating good luck, strength, prosperity, and abundance in the wearer. These pieces of bone jewelry were also used historically for practical purposes in fishing. The intricate Manaia design is thought to carry great spiritual significance and is regarded as a guardian against evil, to defend the wearer from bad spiritual energy at all times.
Every item of NZ Bone Jewelry purchased through NZ Pacific is accompanied by a braided or platted waxed braid cord, along with native flax bag woven to show the traditional styling and beauty of the bone jewelry.
