THE WHEKU 21ST & CELEBRATION KEY
$295.00
Description
21 is the age that a person in New Zealand is classed as an adult, and the giving of the 21st key is a strong New Zealand tradition to symbolize |
opening the door of maturity and becoming an adult. Alternatively, the giving of a key is a symbol of the limitless doors they can open in their life. |
The Wheku’s form is depicted from the head of an ancestor and is considered to be a sacred part of the body. The Wheku is generally |
great mana and deep understanding of the lessons that can be learnt from the past as well as the present. |
This artwork with its intricate design is an impressive contemporary representation of the Wheku. The key is crafted from recycled Native |
New Zealand Rimu veneerboard, medium density fibreboard (mdf), Gaboon veneer plywood and embellished with NZ Paua & Mother of Pearl laminate. |
MADE IN NEW ZEALAND |
