Pekapeka are ancient carved forms, and are the representation of the native bat of Aotearoa. It is said that Māui-tikitiki-a-Taranga, the great trickster, would take on the form of the pekapeka. Worn on special occasions, it is carved as a twin manaia.
This pekapeka was hand-carved by Alex Sands from pipiwharauroa (shining cuckoo) pounamu. It measures 65 x 82mm and has an adjustable hand-braided tan cord.
