About

History of Bone carving that is as old as civilization itself.  Even some of the oldest bone artifacts have decorative features that are clearly not necessary for their functional nature. The first settlers of Aotearoa brought with them the skills of bone carving, both for items of personal adornment and for the manufacture of tools such as fish-hooks. These skills have been passed on, incorporating various cultural adaptations, to the present day.

Stephen Myhre has drawn with great sensitivity on techniques and styles of carving from a wide range of Pacific cultures, but particularly Maori. The result is a superb practical handbook for anyone embarking upon this rapidly growing craft.

Illustrated throughout.
