This beautiful Chocolate Brown Maori Feather Cloak is called a Korowai, although the correct Maori name for it is kahu huruhuru.
The feather cloak is made by a lovely Maori lady of Ngati Porou descent. She blesses each korowai with a karakia.
The top of this cloak is finished with a woven taniko tape. Feathers used start with white at the top, then a mix of chocolate brown feathers and paua feathers. Near the lower edge stripes of white feathers are layered with the chocolate/paua. The inside of the korowai is lined with black fabric. The cloak is sewn on a sewing machine, making it affordable.
Dimensions (approx):
- Width 39" (99cm)
- Length 43" (110cm)
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.
