About wood carving

What is a wakahuia?

A wakahuia is a carved treasure box, traditionally used to keep precious items such as huia feathers and pounamu. Today it's a meaningful place to keep taonga, and a special gift.

What is a pūrerehua?

The pūrerehua (bullroarer) is a traditional Māori instrument, a carved blade swung on a cord so it hums. Its voice was used in ceremony and to call the rain.

Does each carving vary?

Yes. Each piece is carved by hand, so the grain, colour and fine details differ from piece to piece.
