BEHIND TOKI
Traditionally, Toki was used by Māori to cut and work timber for meeting houses and carvings. Because of the determination, control and strength required to skilfully use the Toki, it became a symbol of ability, power and authority. Ceremonial Toki were traditionally worn by Māori elders and Chiefs to signify leadership qualities.
May the Toki bring the wearer strength, courage and inspiration on their journey in life.
I was blown away by the service, quality and affordability. Louise was very helpful and accommodating and Dean is a great carver, clearly plenty of skill and pride goes into his work. Would highly recommend!
