Description

FISHER'S FOLLY - a Matau to wear and feel the joy of being alive!

This whimsical jade hook pendant is a masterful blend of artistry and imagination, carved with precision and creativity. Its flowing, unconventional shape dances between tradition and playfulness, inviting the eye to trace every curve and contour.

FISHER'S FOLLY embodies the timeless symbolism of the fishhook - strength, provision, and connection to the sea - and a touch of whimsy, making it a delightful treasure for the wearer.

This matau pendant was carved for us by Ric Moor. It is carved in a traditional design - a shape that we have seen in very old matau carvings, but with a 'flick' in the tail. It has a traditional binding down the shaft. A beautiful piece of carved art.

The jade is a wonderful lush green pounamu. This is a rare stone loved and valued for its distinctive colour. The cord is a four-plait, adjustable brown coloured necklace.

FISHER'S FOLLY is a medium sized carving, so can be worn by anyone. Ric is a craftsman and this piece is a great example of his carving talent. He has finished FISHER'S FOLLY with a soft polish that glows and is gorgeous to handle. Definitely a pendant to wear all the time.

Watch the brief video we have made of FISHER'S FOLLY slowly revolving. It will reveal all the angles and subtle variations in colour, and maybe help you imagine how this piece will make you feel when you slip it over your head.

The Hook - Matau: 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.
