Toki – Samoan

This is a cool way to represent two cultures, bringing them together with the designs on one on the pounamu from the land of the other.

This toki, made from kawakawa pounamu, is for a Samoan father that now lives in NZ. This is a way to represent his mana from where he is from and the status he has there as well as connecting him to where is now lives.

The Samoan patterns are, from the top, sharks teeth to represent protection, spear heads for a fighting spirit, and at the bottom baskets for achievement.
