Title: Wear Your Tiki Jewelry with Several Patterns
1Wear Your Tiki Jewelry with Several Patterns
2Some believe that Tiki was the first man in Maori
legend created by Atua Tane, the god of the
forest. Others view Tiki as Atua himself and the
ancestor of humanity. Whether it be man or god,
there is a consensus within Maori culture that
humanity descends from the Tiki lineage. When we
break the word down into its parts, "Hei" refers
to an object worn around the neck, and "Tiki" is
the Maori word for a carved human figure. It is
wood, bone, stone, or other materials. Hetiki is,
therefore, a carved figure of a human being worn
around the neck. Traditionally, Hei Tiki
jewellery was passed down from parent to child or
used for protection and good luck. As time
passes, each generation adorns Hei Tiki, and as
the story is told, the meaning and dignity of the
style grows.
3Details of Wiring Attachment behind the Head The
degree to which loose wires are secured before
replacement is one of the variables responsible
for the rate of wear. Another variable is the
relative toughness of the pounamu pieces used to
create hei tiki. The original holes have been
carefully aligned for balance, and most are
pierced from the back and angled so that they
appear concealed or inconspicuous at the top edge
of the head or perhaps it is above/behind the
enlarged upper eyebrow. It seems that the effort
to protect the original pit was made for good
reason. The replacement holes must be located
where possible. They are often pierced directly
through the head in a highly visible and
disfiguring manner, such as through the eye.
4Tiki Shows Some Wear And Tear On The Upper
Arm It is noticed that surface wear tends to be
most evident on the front of the hei tiki, around
the center of the face. This is where small
details, like the nose, tend to get a little cut,
and these details tend to fade with wear and
tear. Such wear is more noticeable than similar
amounts of wear on more heavily used and durable
properties. They are deep-machined frames that
may retain their properties even after being
worn. Most of the wearing of this type of
forehead may be due to the fact that the wearer
enjoys holding and rubbing the hei tiki out of
habit. The degree to which the wearer makes a
habit of doing this is another variable
responsible for the wear rate.
5Very Precious and Very Wearable Hei Tiki By
systematically inspecting and evaluating the
extent of wear and tear on a large number of hei
tiki. It is noticed that there is a tendency for
smaller hei tiki to show more wear and tear than
larger examples, although hei Tiki jewellery sets
can be very different. But on average, the
smaller the hei tiki, the more wearable it is. On
average, the larger the hei tiki, the less
wearable it is. This indicates that it is from a
more recent origin. This observation provides
evidence supporting the view that Haiti gradually
It's getting bigger and bigger. As time passes,
it imitates similar trends in wood carving.
