This patu in marble plays with the similarities of Celtic and Maori design. The Maori koru is similar to the spiral forms of other cultures and when encountered on a traditional form such as the patu the viewer usually presumes that the design is Maori. In this case it is a contemporary version of a Celtic design. The choice of marble enhances the European aspects of this carving.
