FAMILY GATHERING

FAMILY GATHERING is a larger sized, double sided, Toki pendant with stylised hammerhead koru.

An eye-catching piece of art to wear!

FAMILY GATHERING - where laughter and love unites!

Amanda carved this toki pendant from natural white bone and polished it to a smooth sheen. The front and back faces each feature a hammerhead Koru design, whose dark colouring contrasts beautifully with the pale bone. Because it's double-sided, the pendant looks complete from any angle.

FAMILY GATHERING is provided with a Black adjustable length cord and lovingly packaged in a woven kete pouch.

In this piece, the hammerhead design has two inward facing Koru, this symbolises family protection and guidance.

The hammerhead shark holds deep cultural and spiritual significance for many indigenous peoples of the South Pacific Islands. It is often revered as a guardian or ancestral being, symbolising strength, protection, and connection to the ocean. 

In some traditions, hammerhead sharks are considered sacred and are believed to embody the spirits of ancestors, playing a central role in myths, rituals, and ceremonies. Additionally, these communities have historically relied on sustainable fishing practices that respect the shark's role in the ecosystem, reflecting a harmonious relationship with nature.

Watch the brief video and you will appreciate the artistry of this beautiful piece.

We include our 'Kia Ora' cards explaining the meaning behind both the Toki and Koru design.
