A gorgeous Dolphin By master bone carver Peter Mitchell.
The Dolphin represents a free spirit and symbolizes playfulness, harmony and friendship. Closeness to nature, especially the ocean. Maori revered dolphins, as they did whales – believing them to be water spirits. There are legendary tales telling of gods, who had taken the form of dolphins, guiding sailors through treacherous waterways to keep them safe.
Traditionally carved from Whale bone, however these days many bone carvings are made from cattle bone as it is an ethically abundant source.
