Kia Māia. Be brave.
For we are here to stand beside you.
Lush rich toffee or evergreen coloured satin ribbon earrings featuring a mangōpare design.
The mangōpare (hammerhead shark) pattern can reflect courage, strength, agility and tenacity.
The design is a gentle reminder that courage and strength come from within, flowing through whakapapa and building through connections and relationships with the world around us. Draw strength where you need to.
The long satin ribbons pay homage to historical images of tāne and wāhine adorning their ears in similar ways.
MATERIALS: Stainless steel hooks, printed satin ribbon.
