This full-size wooden patu ornament is a stunning Maori war club, expertly hand-carved from Mahogany wood. Traditionally reserved for high-ranking and respected warriors, its intricate carving depicts a sacred ancestor or the god of war, symbolically watching over the warrior’s back. Today, these Wahaika are treasured as meaningful ceremonial gifts, blending rich heritage with exceptional craftsmanship.
Please note: As each carving is handcrafted from natural mahogany, variations in colour and wood grain patterning are to be expected, adding to the unique charm and authenticity of every piece.
