Spinning top. Consists of a half-cut te nana (coconut shell) which has been polished and the natural peak on the underside shaped even further to a sharper point for spinning. In the interior of the nana is another half cut segment of te nana placed to fit the inner convex curve of the outer shell to add more weight overall for the spinning top. Each te nana is dark brown in colour, with an outer surface of high sheen. The interior surface of both shells are matte with scraping visible from the previous removal of coconut flesh. They are not evenly round in circumference.WāhiBeru/Gilbert Islands/KiribatiAccession Number1936.295Rā Tāpiringa1936Tohu Tuakiri Kē24057.4 (ethnology)95 (Maude Collection)WāhangaPacific Uiuitia Tāpirihia ki Taku Kete Kabukuwi, 1936.295, 24057.4, 95, Photographed by Jennifer… … Read more Tirohia ngā pikitia Mātātuhi me ngā tuhinga Mātātuhi Mātātuhi Taonga Taonga Rārangi MihiCollection of Auckland Museum Tamaki Paenga Hira, 1936.295, 24057.4; 95Takenga ā-AhureaKiribatiKohingaMaudeKaiwaihanga Matua Unknown (Maker)WāhiBeru/Gilbert Islands/KiribatiRāPre 1936Tikanga Waihangaground polishedWaitohu/māka24057.4 BERU IS.
