  3. Maori Korowai Cloaks

This beautiful Purple and Paua Maori Korowai contains a mix of purple, cerise, white and paua (greeny blue) feathers, accented with a purple taniko at the top.  The combination looks regal.

This Maori feather cloak is made by a lovely Maori lady of Ngati Porou descent. She was shown the method of making the korowai by a Northland kuia, and she blesses each korowai with a karakia.

The correct name for the cloak is kahu huruhuru, but most people still use the word korowai to describe these cloaks.

The inside of the korowai is lined with black fabric.  The cloak is sewn on a sewing machine, making it affordable.

Made to order, allow 3 weeks.

Dimensions (approx):

  • Width 41" (104cm)
  • Length 41" (104cm)

Wonderful to wear at a wedding, special function, 21st, graduation, or to present as a corporate gift, or to keep as a unique and beautiful piece of Maori art.

To maintain the mana of this beautiful piece of Maori art, please wear the korowai around the shoulders and not under the armpit.

Hi, Received my lovely slippers today and I am very happy love the colour. My current NZ slippers are just worn out after many years.
I am more than satisfied as I know my new pair will last a long time, I have bought my slippers from NZ for many years as I'm assured they will last as I wear them all the time inside and out.

Hello Lesley and everyone at ShopNZ!
Our shipment of NZ tea (Bell and Choysa) arrived today! We are thrilled the teas made it here despite the Covid19 pandemic! Thank you so much!
We are enjoying our first cups of these delicious teas and will enjoy many more in the days to come as we shelter at home in Washington State USA.

Thanks so much, arrived in time for Mother's Day and this is what my Mum had to say about it: 
"Thanks so much for the wonderful present. The scarf is so warm and will be so well worn. Black is so versatile, goes with everything and smart too. Great gift!
