Stand Strong Taonga

STAND STRONG!

Ehara taku toa i te toa takitahi, engari he toa takitini.

Our taonga using rākau, waxed cord and our O TE MOTU raukura, is finally here after visiting me in my dreams. This taonga can be worn to adorn the body or it can be displayed as an artwork - OR BOTH! It is a reminder to STAND STRONG!

The four crosses symbolise Ngā Hau E Whā O Te Motu and the rākau is repurposed kindling to symbolise Ahi Kaa and the significant role of this.

32cm L - 4cm W

Taonga can have either raukura or kawakawa.
