Hand Carved Hibiscus Wood Whale Figurine, Polynesian Decor

Hafa Adai, Aloha and Talofa!!! Thank you for visiting my small island shop and for supporting small businesses like ours! This listing is for a small handcarved whale. It is made with a very light sea hibiscus wood. It measures just 6”x 3” - perfect for a small bookcase, desk ornament or even a window seal decoration. Whales are a frequent subject in Polynesian lore too, where they appear as protectors and guides. The two strongest ones swim at the head of the group to protect the others, and the look of the two paired whales is told to have inspired the structure of Polynesian double-hulled seafaring canoes.
