Korowai Kākahu - 3/4 Length

This Purple Korowai is a powerful symbol of high status, respect, and cultural pride, deeply rooted in Māori tradition. Purple is a colour that signifies strength, dignity, and a connection to the spiritual world and ancestral wisdom, reflecting the importance of the wearer’s lineage and their deep ties to their heritage.

At the top, a red poutama taniko band is intricately woven, symbolising growth, knowledge, and the ancestral journey of upward progression. This band resembles a staircase or a series of steps, representing the journey of knowledge, learning, and advancement through generations

Each korowai is crafted with the utmost care and reverence, honouring the mana (prestige) of those who came before.

A row of white at the top signifies balance and harmony, adding a layer of meaning that reminds the wearer to maintain unity between the spiritual and physical worlds.
