Crafted from recycled native Rimu wood, these keepsake boxes feature engraved designs inspired by Pūhoro. By blending traditional Māori aesthetics with contemporary design, the result is something that feels both modern and nostalgic, exuding authenticity and cultural significance.

The Pūhoro design stems from the deep bond Māori have with water and navigation. When a hoe (paddle) hits the water, ripples and waves form, trailing behind the moving canoe (waka). This fluid movement reflects the Pūhoro pattern. Just as the paddle propels the canoe, the Pūhoro symbolizes life's momentum, journey, and continual movement.

Proudly made in Aotearoa, NZ.
