NZ made metal-cast Kiwi bird with Paua shell inlay and a Mother-of-Pearl egg. The Kiwi's egg is equal to one-fifth of the mother’s body. It is a remarkable creature.
We as a nation have chosen to identify with the Kiwi's distinctive character. The Kiwi is the only bird to have nostrils at the tip of its beak. It cannot fly, and it hunts for food on the forest floor in the middle of the night. You may not have been lucky enough to see one, but you can take one of these around with you to remember it by.
