These Māori Cow Bone Feather Earrings are perfect for those who love the look of the feather shape in an earring, but don't like long ones.  At 4cm (1 1/2"), they suit both children and adults.

In Maori culture, huia and albatross feathers represented leadership or status, and were often worn in the hair by chiefs or tohunga (priests).  Birds and their feathers were considered to be sacred taonga (treasures), and feathers in particular represent the Māori spiritual connection to the afterlife.

So the bone feather earrings are a very special adornment, which now can be worn by anyone.  These ones are made from cow bone, a by-product of the abbatoir.

They hang from silver hooks.
