Wooden Carved 21st Patu - Inlaid With Paua Shell

Wooden Carved 21st Patu - Inlaid With Paua Shell.

This Maori 21st Birthday Patu is a great alternative to the traditional 21st key.

The patu is made from sustainably farmed Tulip Wood, a hardwood.

It is inlaid with native New Zealand Paua Shell, found only in NZ waters, and a type of abalone.

Paua has beautiful irridescent shades of blue, green, pink and purple, and no two pieces are the same.

A great 21st gift, one they can easily take with them and hang on the wall, wherever in the world they get to.

The keys are designed and hand carved here in New Zealand by Maori carvers.

To avoid offending any Iwi or tribal groups, the designs are generic and representative of
common Maori and island motifs.

Size Approx 41.5 H x 13cm W.
