Native Tipu-Plants of Aotearoa

Hei Tiki- A symbol of protection, good luck, and ancestral connection, the tiki embodies a profound tapestry of spiritual and cultural meaning.

 

Native Tipu- Each plant carries its own unique significance, deeply connected to the whenua and our way of life:

 

Kōwhai-Represents growth, renewal and new beginnings.

 

Kawakawa- Symbolises healing, protection and spiritual cleansing.

 

Mānuka- Represents strength, resilience and endurance.

 

Pōhutukawa-Known as the tree of remembrance, symbolising connection between worlds and those who have passed.

 

Harakeke- Represents whānau, protection and the strength of connection — from the rito (centre shoot) to the outer leaves.

 

Inspired by these elements, each piece in this collection reflects the beauty, meaning and connection of native tipu — handcrafted with intention and aroha.
