This 50mm x 15mm pendant is a silver-plated version of the traditional Maori Taiaha, featuring bright red resin eyes and an adjustable silver chain. It serves as a powerful symbol of leadership and constant watchfulness, combining the strength of a warrior with the wisdom of the ancestors.
The Taiaha is the most respected long-staff weapon of the Maori people, traditionally representing high status and the power of great speech. This modern piece includes the main parts of the weapon: the defiant tongue (Arero) and the watchful head (Upoko). A special detail of this design is the red resin eyes; in Maori art, red eyes represent spiritual insight and the protective power of those who came before us.
Made from brass with high-quality silver plating, this pendant hangs from an adjustable silver chain. It is a sophisticated piece for the modern person who wants to honor New Zealand’s heritage and represent the role of a protector.
