This 100mm x 33mm hand-carved bone pendant features a unique design of a Maori warrior holding a Taiaha staff. This prestigious piece has been gifted to New Zealand Army soldiers to represent courage, service, and spiritual protection.
While most carvings only show the staff, this rare version shows the warrior (Toa) himself in a watchful and defiant stance. The carved head at the base features shimmering paua shell eyes, which represent "360-degree awareness" and the guidance of ancestors watching over the wearer from all sides.
Because of its connection to the warrior spirit, this piece is a meaningful gift for those in service. Made from ethically sourced bone, it is a "living object" that absorbs your energy as you wear it. Over time, the bone will turn a beautiful honey-gold color, creating a physical record of your personal history and your service to the people of Aotearoa.
