Expertly handcrafted with aroha in our Auckland Atelier and ready to send in 10+ business days

Imagine feeling connected to Papatuanuku, the Earth Mother, through our Pātiki Whenua Brown Design. This versatile and beloved design incorporates warm tones reminiscent of mud, soil, and clay found in the earth. Whether attending family events or simply wanting to feel grounded, this design is perfect for the entire family.

Proud to be 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.

The width of this product is 110cm and it comes with 60cm corded ties. For the most accurate measurement, we suggest measuring around your upper chest, shoulders, and upper back. The majority of buyers will find that they fit within the 100-130cm width range.

When choosing the right length, keep in mind that the Quarter length is 40cm, the Half Length is 60cm, and the Full Length is 100cm. To ensure you make the best selection, measure from your shoulder point down the side of your body.

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.
