Expertly handcrafted with aroha in our Auckland Atelier and ready to send in 5+ business days
The Manawa (Heart) design of uses a mixture of warm berry, pinks and batural brown feathers to represent the joy of welcoming a beautiful new baby into the 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 babies aged 0-12 months (30cm x 30cm).
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.
