TAIAHA

Carved in New Zealand Jade, a pendant for lovers of tradition - TAIAHA! TAIAHA is a lovely example of creative carving and craftsmanship using the natural variation in New Zealand Jade to create a beautiful, tactile taiaha pendant. Pounamu is the perfect material for this piece - it is a beautiful green textured colour which lends just the right character for the design - this is a beauty! Usually TAIAHA are carved from whalebone or wood and were used in close quarters combat - it was a formidable weapon in the right hands! We have fitted an adjustable cord in Black and TAIAHA will be packaged in a woven kete pouch. Watch the brief video to appreciate this 3-dimensional carving. A beautiful and original piece of carved art. A piece for collectors of the wonderful and curious. Delivery with Express Courier is included in the price.
