Fisherman Hook - Matau

Step into the realm of iconic Polynesian items with the Koa Fish Hook, aka Matau, a majestic piece immortalized in wood by the talented hands of Veukitau Vatikani.

Maui’s enchanted hook became an icon of adventure, self-discovery, and a hardy good time. Thanks to Disney’s magic touch, the Matau went from a traditional tool to a symbol of resilience and cultural coolness. “Moana” didn’t just make waves; it turned the fishhook into a must-have symbol for folks everywhere, celebrating Polynesian culture with a sprinkle of Disney fun.
