MANAWA ROA EARRINGS

This taonga features the whatumanawa, described as the heart, mind, and seat of emotions of a person. The koru patterns around the heart represent the different experiences and people that we encounter throughout our lives.

Manawa Roa is a taonga to wear with a self-awareness that you are part of a bigger story, 'Remember the soil of your ancestors, and the dreams of your mokopuna'.

Kupu hou:

manawa = heart

roa = long

whatumanawa = heart, mind, seat of emotions

mokopuna = grandchildren
