This Maori bone hair comb (Heru) has a Maori fish hook (hei matau) at the top and consists of two teeth. The Heru is traditionally worn by Maori men to fasten a top knot or by women as a decorative hair ornament. Intricately hand carved from New Zealand cow bone, its overall length is approximately 5-1/2". Exact shape and carving design may vary. Wear it in your hair or present it to a friend or family member as a beautiful hand crafted Maori gift.
