This leather wrist cuff is a contemporary piece of wearable art emanating nostalgic charm. Drawing inspiration from design elements found in traditional Māori meeting houses and the intricate patterns of Ta Moko, it seamlessly blends traditional Māori aesthetics with modern flair. The result bridges the old and the new, exuding both authenticity and cultural significance.

The Puhoro design originates from the deep bond Māorhave with water and navigation. When a hoe (paddle) hits the water, ripples and waves form, trailing behind the moving canoe (waka). This fluid movement reflects the Puhoro pattern. Just as the paddle propels the canoe, the Puhoro symbolises life's momentum, journey, and continual movement.

Proudly made in Aotearoa, NZ.
