Description

KĀ - Ignite

Matau Rua, Double Hook - Ignite your inner fire!

Hand carved from a wonderful piece of New Zealand argillite stone by Rueben Tipene.

Show your adventurous spirit and carry New Zealand's unique culture with you wherever you travel. This beautiful, edgy double Matau is perfectly balanced, uniting style and harmony in one powerful piece.

Wear KĀ and take on the world!

Rueben has etched a subtle design into the face of the pendant and used a dual polishing technique to provide a visual contrast and a wonderful tactile feel. This is a beautiful piece of art to wear!

The matau, or hook pendant is revered throughout the South Pacific as a symbol for life, well-being and prosperity. Its significance arises from the key role that fishing has played in sustaining island families and communities. The owner of a good hook was respected and held a place of authority in the community.

A little about this design...

The Hook:  The wearer of a Hei-Matau is seen as a provider and protector who is strong willed and determined to succeed in life - what a lovely sentiment to gift to someone important to you.

KĀ is provided with an adjustable Cosmos/Silver Grey cord and lovingly packaged in a woven kete pouch.

We have made a short video of this piece slowly revolving so that you can appreciate the beauty of this piece from all aspects.

Also included, our 'Kia ora' card, which explains the meaning behind the hook design.
