WHITETIP AT NIGHT

A really nice MATTE New Zealand jade hook that we have had carved with care and precision. These are bound with a traditional lashing on the shaft - the binding is decorative and strong.

The finish is a soft matte polish. This lends the carving a natural look and feel and, for us, looks a little like this underwater predator cruising in the soft light of the evening.

We have a similar design - WHITETIP AT DUSK.

A visually strong pendant, beautifully carved with a traditional binding this piece looks like it means business. Take a moment to view the video to appreciate the material used and the beautifully clean lines of this piece.  This will make a fabulous pendant for someone who loves the ocean.

We have two options available; Black Cord and Binding or Olive Green Cord and Binding. Please use the drop-down menu to make your selection.

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. It is worn for protection when travelling - especially over water.

Please note - the photo shown in the hand is for size reference only.

We provide these on hand plaited adjustable cords and will also include one of our 'Kia Ora' cards, which explains the meaning behind the Hook design.
