Bone Carving #14 (Hei Tiki)- Te Manawanui

14 (Hei Tiki)- Te Manawanui

This Hei tiki is called Te Manawanui and embodies the great gift and love of whānau or the tribe we choose. The encouragement of whānau or great company can nurture us into our full potential. 

Just remember, whānau may not be our blood whānau - we can choose and create the tribe we want to be surrounded by who will become a great influence on our life. 

The taonga depicts a wāhine.

Front side only, measures 9.9cm length x 3.4cm width, black, adjustable, waxed cord.
