This Large 15cm Bone Toki Manaia Necklace is a stunning piece, isn't it?
It's large at 15cm (6"), a size many Maori now want to wear, so they have a standout piece.
The pendant is beautifully bound, with a long 70cm (27 1/2") plaited cord with bone toggle closure.
The bone toki has an intricate surface carving of a manaia, enhanced with a paua shell eye. Manaia are Maori spiritual guardians over sea, land and air, warding off evil spirits. The toki also carries a spiritual meaning. The toki or adze was a very important implement to pre-European Maori. The toki necklace was usually worn by elders, and is a symbol of power, wisdom and authority.
So this toki manaia carries a lot of spiritual meaning.
Wear it yourself or gift it to a loved one.
