This 120mm x 40mm hand-carved Maori bone pekapeka pendant features colorful paua shell accents and acts as a traditional "Kaitiaki," or spiritual guardian. Made from ethically sourced cattle bone, this piece honors the traditional art of Aotearoa and represents the vision and protection of ancestors.
The design uses shimmering paua shell—often called the "eyes of the ancestors"—set into the shape of a native bat (Pekapeka). In Māori culture, the bat represents the ability to move between the physical and spiritual worlds with clear insight. As a "living object," the bone is meant to absorb your energy (Mauri) as you wear it, while the shell reflects the protective power of the sea.
