Hei Matau Pendant - Jade

Hei Matau pendant carved from jade. 

This Hei Matau pendant is crafted in the shape of a traditional fishhook. The object has held immense symbolic importance among the Māori culture since the legend of Maui, who fished up a great catch with a woven line and a hook constructed from his grandmother's jawbone. In Maori mythology, this powerful object carries a strong association with strength, fertility, prosperity, luck, and safe voyages on water.
