This one-of-a-kind Kōtare clothing design pays tribute to Hiria's beloved brother. Inspired by the frequent visits of a Kingfisher to her family, the design incorporates a stunning combination of royal blue, bright turquoise, natural browns, and white feathers. A turquoise taniko band adds the finishing touch. This design honors her brother's role as a Kaitiaki (protector) and his enduring love for his family, even from the spirit world.

Proudly māori made by the Niha whanau (family) business in Aotearoa (New Zealand), each piece is guided by tikanga (cultural customs) and the wisdom of kaumatua (elders). Notably, these unisex pieces have garnered attention in publications like Vogue, Vanity Fair, Tatler, and Glamour Magazine.

This size is recommended for children aged 6-12yrs. 

Every Kākahu we make comes with a special blessing, honoring the tradition of blessing taonga. This helps maintain the mana of each event we celebrate while wearing the korowai, and teaches respect for our māori taonga.
