Discover the exquisite Korowai - Emerald Green, a contemporary M?ori cloak that embodies the deep cultural significance and artistic craftsmanship of New Zealand. Measuring 1m x 1m, this stunning Korowai draws inspiration from the lush forest ferns of Aotearoa, featuring a vibrant emerald green hue that captivates the eye. Handmade in Auckland, each piece is meticulously crafted with feathers sourced from farmed chickens and roosters, some dyed to create a diverse and rich color palette.
Korowai are traditionally worn during significant events such as hui (gatherings), graduations, birthdays, and tangihanga (funerals), symbolizing respect, honor, and the stories of wh?nau (family) and whakapapa (genealogy). The modern design incorporates durability without sacrificing beauty, making it a perfect choice for both formal occasions and casual wear.
The unique taniko trim, woven from high-quality NZ wool, features the Manaia and Wairua (spirit) designs, representing the connection of iwi (tribes) and cultures, with the Manaia sitting in the Wharenui (ancestral meeting house). With adjustable drawstring ties, this Korowai provides a comfortable fit for everyone. While we keep a small stock, please allow a week for production to ensure your piece is made with love and care. Elevate your wardrobe with this meaningful garment today!
