Signature Heru - Traditional Maori Hair Comb
PSI3378S
$584.00
Traditional Maori heru are combs worn as functional hair ornaments by both men and women. Often the decorations on pre-European heru were a symbol of mana and prestige.
These Heru are unique and differ from most as they are hand-crafted by one of the countries best stone tool and pre-European Māori style artists, Layton Robertson. Expert tāniko weaves are done by hand into a 3 meter cord and intricately woven between each stick (without the use of any machine tools) to create the beautiful pattern you see here.
They measure 13.5 x 3.7 cm and 11 x 4.5 cm.
