The hook is one of the most recognizable symbols of whole Polynesia. It contains significant cultural meaning as well as a sense of belonging to Polynesia. The hook is a symbol of energy, strength, prosperity, and abundance. Since the Polynesian livelihood is very much dependent on the ocean waters, the fish hook necklace signifies deep respect and love towards the oceans.
