Tui Korowai

Size: From 1mtr width x 1mtr length

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 2-3 weeks for manufacture.

Our Poutama Taniko means "stairway to heaven. Poutama is a traditional Māori stepped pattern that symbolizes the "stairway to heaven", representing the growth of man, the pursuit of knowledge, and levels of advancement. It is derived from the myth of the god Tāne climbing to the highest heavens to obtain the Three Baskets of Knowledge for humanity.

Our taniko designs vary.
