Manaia in white Petrified Wood

Manaia in White Petrified Wood

Medium: New Zealand white Petrified Wood.

Dimensions: 62 mm x 2 mm x 8 mm

Year: 2009

Sold. A similar design can be carved for you.

This is my unique development of the traditional Maori manaia. The bird beak has been retained and the body expanded upon. Beads allow the wearing length to suit.

This is a very rare stone, usually Petrified woods are brown but this stone is the exception to the rule.
