MAORI Style "Hei Matau" BONE FISH HOOK NECKLACES

These are beautifully hand carved cow bone (unless otherwise marked) in the traditional Maori fish hook called Hei Matau.  

This shape represents strength, prosperity, abundance and fertility.  Wearing it is a sign of respect for the sea and its creatures, so it is also regarded as a good luck charm providing protection and safety while traveling over water.

It is also given as a mark of friendship and respect.

The Maori people of New Zealand are the oldest known culture renowned for these graceful designs, though these are carved in the Philippines with the same beauty & quality.

One of each as shown, unless otherwise indicated
