19.5cm Brown Huia Feather Heru

Size (mm): Approximately 195 L x 34 W. 

These can only be made from the largest pieces of bone, so supply is limited. A time-consuming piece to make due to the large amount of fine detail work. 

For Māori, the huia feather was revered as a symbol of nobility, leadership, and hierarchy. The white-tipped tail feathers were worn as head adornments to signify chiefs and people of great mana (authority and power).
