Pendant Sterling Silver Whale Tail

This Sterling Silver Whale Tail Pendant is engraved with a Tribal design.

Whales appear in the migration legends of many tribes. In some, whales were a sign indicating to a tribe that it should settle in a particular place. In others, whales were a guide. Some individual Maori were said to have a whale guardian spirit when at sea. Stylised whale shapes, symbolising the bounty within, were often carved on the bargeboards of storage houses.

Includes a 16-18 inch adjustable sterling silver trace chain.
