This beautifully carved Whales Tail would make a lovely ornament, gift, trophy, souvenir of New Zealand or as an alternative to the traditional 21st Birthday Key.
It is Carved from New Zealand Pine/Matai and measures approx 31.5cm High and 26cm Wide from Tip to Tip
Maori whale tail (Muri Paraoa) Core meaning; speed and strength. Indicates the support often shown by dolphins and whales to humans in distress. Therefore a symbol of protection. But also of speed, strength, sensitivity, the bond between animal and human.

The plaque compliments the carving theres not too much going on or too less its perfect for a gift from me to show appreciation. I have so far brought 3 different carvings from here all for 21st birthdays as an alternative to keys as they already have babies and this place has never let me down. Really quick too (ime)????
