We have a few spots left for 2024! Yes, we can still help you with a design for November & December 2024

Expertly handcrafted with aroha in our Auckland Atelier by Hiria Aorangi and her whānau and team. Keep in mind that every custom design typically takes a minimum of 6 weeks to complete, which will be determined during your consultation.

Our simple and streamlined design process allows you to place an order with confidence. We offer a free design consultation appointment (via zoom) with our talented designer, and a "real life" preview for your valuable feedback. 

Our collaboration guarantees a one-of-a-kind and tailor-made end result. After your order is confirmed, you will receive a preview within 2-4 weeks for your approval, allowing you to smoothly transition into the production phase upon confirming your personalized design.

Our custom-made pieces are highly sought after and take as much time as needed to craft something that is truly personalized for you and your values.

Don't wait, place your order today or reach out to us directly and we can get started on something amazing!
