This Carved Maripi on the Base would make a lovely Souvenir of New Zealand, as a Presentation Piece, Trophy or as an alternative to the traditional 21st Birthday Key.
The Maripi measures approx 41cm Long and has inlaid Paua Shell.
The Base measures 45cm Long
A Maripi is traditionally a cutting instrument made of wood with shark’s teeth as the cutting edge.
