Traditionally passed from parent to child or used for protection and good luck.

The Tiki is a very ancient symbol and is by far the least understood.

Other theories state that tiki represents the human embryo.

He is believed to have a strong link to the sea - often being depicted with webbed feet.

Perhaps the most accepted meaning of the Tiki is fertility.

The Adze or Toki symbolizes strength as it represents the traditional Maori tool, whose blade had to be strong so as not to break when used.
