295mm Māori Mania Carving – Handcrafted Pacific Rimu Wood Award – MD044
Crafted from solid Pacific Rimu (podocarp), this stunning piece features a beautifully carved Māori Manaia adorned with native pāua shell inlay and detailed laser-etched surface patterns. It stands proudly on a large wooden base, making it an impressive and meaningful trophy or display piece.
Perfect for special occasions such as milestone birthdays, farewell gifts, or sports and achievement awards, this carving is both symbolic and visually striking.
In Māori tradition, the Manaia is a revered spiritual guardian, believed to offer protection over the realms of earth, sea, and sky. The bird-like head represents the sky, while the carved fish scale patterns symbolise the sea—together offering powerful symbolism of guidance, strength, and safety.
