New Zealand Maori Taiaha Spear | This Taiaha, hand-carved from rich wood and adorned with intricate traditional engravings and iridescent paua shell eyes, measures 38cm (14.96") long, 6cm (2.36") wide, and 2.5cm (0.98") deep.
In Maori culture, the Taiaha is a prestigious and powerful traditional weapon, historically used in close-quarters combat and as a ceremonial staff by warriors and chiefs. It symbolizes strength, leadership, and martial prowess, making it a profound piece of New Zealand heritage and art.
Note: This is a short, handheld version of the traditional Taiaha. Authentic Taiaha are typically much longer, ranging from 1.5 to 1.8 meters (approximately 5 to 6 feet) in length. This compact size makes our replica a perfect, manageable display piece. This Taiaha is a replica intended for display purposes only. It does not carry the functionality or historical weight of an authentic combat weapon.
