Antique cigarettes cards. Wills's cigarettes (Lucky Charms). The ancient Maori's Hei-Tiki amulet. 1923 The hei-tiki is an ornamental pendant of the Maori of New Zealand. Hei-tiki are usually made of pounamu (greenstone), and are considered a taonga (treasure) by Maori. They are commonly called tiki by New Zealanders, a term that actually refers to large human figures carved in wood and to the small wooden carvings used to mark sacred places.
