Description
Old Maori Taiaha.
Has been sold together to the UK long time ago. And I seen them on a picture about 5 years ago besides other stuff and ask if they are for sale and after long negotiations I was able to retrieve them and get them back where they belong to. They are just sitting in my storage and it would be much better if someone who actually can appreciate them better and maybe display.
I would prefer if someone buys them as they came together but individually is ok too as long as they go into good hands.
These are very well made and not the new omnes you get. These are a real piece of art. Not sure what the wood is but I would think it is Kauri or kanuka but I am not an expert, it is really hard wood as it seems. Hand carved.
Taiaha like this is very hard to get.
Any questions - please ask.

Stop acting like it is an old piece. This is a customary, contemporary piece. Not old at all. t******2 (232 • 10:25 pm, Sun, 12 MayKia ora, it’s pine that has been stained, with old oil and fire headed to replicate a traditional taiaha. The carving is traditional but the taiaha were made to seek to tourist. They are only 16 years old and were priced at $390.00, hahah. t******2 (232 • 7:35 pm, Mon, 13 May
