Pīataata Contemporary Korowai

A contemporary korowai inspired by presence, confidence and quiet strength.

Pīataata is part of our Signature Collection, handcrafted in our West Auckland studio and finished with our exclusive KBH Signature Tāniko band.

Meaning to shine, sparkle and stand out, Pīataata honours those who lead with confidence while remaining grounded in who they are. It is a design created for moments that deserve to be remembered — graduations, performances, leadership, celebrations and the milestones that shape our stories.

Its striking all-black silhouette allows the signature tāniko to become a statement of identity, while the subtle gold woven throughout catches the light as you move. A reminder that true mana is often expressed through humility, authenticity and quiet confidence.

Every Pīataata is Ava-crafted by hand using premium materials and made especially for you. No two are exactly the same, making each korowai a unique expression of the person who wears it.

Whether gifted, worn or treasured for generations to come, Pīataata is created to celebrate your achievements while honouring the journey that brought you here.

From our studio to your whānau, this is more than a garment. It is a reflection of strength, identity and the light that already exists within you.

Handcrafted in Aotearoa, New Zealand.
