Huia Crossed Feather Studs

These gorgeous Huia Crossed Feather Studs are delicate and absolutely stunning. The native Huia bird was the most sacred of New Zealand birds to Māori, and regarded as tapu (sacred). The white-tipped tail feathers were worn as head adornments to signify chiefs and people of great mana. Huia birds mated for life, and were almost always found in pairs - symbolised in the studs by two intertwining feathers.
