In French Polynesia, tiki are much more than decorative carvings. Traditionally, they represent ancestral spirits, protection, strength, and a connection to Polynesian heritage. For centuries, tiki have held deep cultural and spiritual significance, serving as symbols of identity and guardianship throughout the islands.

Today, you'll find tiki in homes, cultural sites, artisan workshops, and public spaces across The Islands of Tahiti- each one reflecting the rich history and traditions of Polynesian culture.

Have you taken a tiki home as a special souvenir from French Polynesia?
