The Red Kowhaiwhai Earrings are a striking celebration of Māori art and New Zealand culture. Featuring the iconic kowhaiwhai patterns, traditionally seen adorning wharenui (Māori meeting houses), these earrings embody stories of whakapapa (genealogy), balance, and the cycle of life.

Designed in a bold red finish, the earrings highlight the flowing, symmetrical shapes of kowhaiwhai, representing heritage, connection, and the beauty of Māori design. Red, a significant colour in Māori symbolism, is associated with mana (prestige), strength, and vitality. When paired with the timeless curves of kowhaiwhai, these earrings become more than accessories – they are wearable taonga (treasures).

Crafted with high-quality materials for durability and lightweight comfort, the Red Kowhaiwhai Earrings are perfect for everyday wear, cultural occasions, or as a meaningful gift. Their vibrant design makes them a statement piece that stands out, while still carrying deep cultural meaning.
