Crafted from quality leather, this statement neckpiece emanates nostalgic charm. Drawing inspiration from the traditional patterns seen in Māori meeting houses and the intricate designs of Ta Moko, the piece blends classic Māori flair with contemporary aesthetics. The result is a fusion of the modern and the timeless, exuding authenticity and deep cultural significance.
Central to the design are three figures, each inspired by traditional Māori wood carving. It tells the tale of the separation of Papatuanuku, the earth mother, and Ranginui, the sky father. Their separation ushered in the first light, marking the beginning of the world.
