This design has lovely traditional, decorative detail - it is finely engraved and culminates in a graceful whaletail.
The whale is revered in Māori mythology. They were called upon for protection and guidance on the long canoe journey's to New Zealand. There is an oral record of interactions between people and whales and they have taken on a mythical and prized status for many here in New Zealand and the wider South Pacific.
So this is a fabulous gift for someone who loves the ocean - and maybe that's you!
If you like handcrafted, traditional art to wear, and if you appreciate the finest craftsmanship - check this piece out, it's a beauty!
DEEP WISDOM is carved from natural bone in New Zealand by Maori artist Peter Mitchell.
We absolutely love the two tone matte and polished finish alongside the faultless handiwork.
