Pendant - Amulet made of wood "Taniva"

The amulet is made of tropical Cocobolo wood, covered with linseed oil.

Taniwa is a sea serpent. In mythology, a Maori is a creature that lives in deep lakes and rivers, in underwater caves, or in the sea.
Maori honored these powerful Taneva and considered them as talismans of his tribe.

The Taniwa amulet is carved in the shape of a spiral (koru) with the head of a Kiwi bird and the constellation Southern Cross.
Spiral bark is one of the most popular characters in the Maori.
The bark is a twisted undiscovered fern. The bark is a symbol of a new beginning. Also the bark symbolizes rebirth, awakening, personal growth, hope, purity, the beginning of a new stage in life, the spirit of change, harmony and tranquility.

To order production from different breeds of wood is possible!
All pendants are cut and polished manually. Wood texture in nature is never repeated, so each pendant is unique.
