Description

A Hei Tiki in cream, hand-carved on a leather cord — not a resin casting.

What a Hei Tiki is

The Hei Tiki is the best-known Māori ornament: a human figure with a tilted head, traditionally cut from pounamu, New Zealand nephrite. It was handed down over generations and held the mana of its previous owners.

Why this piece stands out

It is the only carved item in this collection — all the others are resin castings from small runs. Hand work means every line was cut once, and there is no second one like it.
