Tae Rereķē Contemporary Korowai
Tae Rerekē(Different Colours).
Inspired by a dear friend.
Size 1.13 mtrs width x 1.0 mtrs length
Our Contemporary Korowai are handmade sewn.
Māori cloaks are most commonly worn on special occasions, whether a significant hui and coming together of people, or significant graduation, birthday or tangi. They’re held in the highest regard and worn with the highest form of respect, prestige, and honor.
Our Korowai are handmade by machine stitching feathers onto a lined fabric base. The feather wrap around the front edge to complete the look. A traditional handwoven one takes many weeks to complete and costs significantly more. A modern Korowai offers better durability and more colours. Inspiration for the colour and designs from our local fauna and flora. We use beautiful farmed chicken and rooster feathers, some of which have been dyed to create the amazing colour range available in our Korowai selection. Our Korowai have drawstring ties so you can alter the width to fit the wearer. We try to keep a small stock but you should allow a week for production.
The taniko trim has also been woven from wool in NZ.
Allow 2 weeks for manufacture.
