This Taonga is a blend of Customary, and Contemporary. A cast Customary-style Silver Pekapeka sits above a slice of Dinosaur Bone - also known as Agatized Gembone. This particular Dinosaur bone is from what is believed to have been part of a Brontosaurus Skeleton.
Pekapeka is the Māori word for 'Bat' - fun fact, the 2x species of Bat that exist in Aotearoa are our only native land mammal!
Pekapeka are fantastic Taonga - being not only symmetrical, but also double sided! One understanding is that this dual symmetry mirrors the nature of our native bats, themselves.
Pekapeka, Jumpring, and Chain are all Solid Sterling Silver.
The chain is a 50cm long, 1mm Curb-link.
20 x 22mm
