Korowai by Hiria
Adult Moana Blue Korowai
Couldn't load pickup availability
Our Tangaroa design features a mix of royal blue, black and turquoise coque feathers, finished with white coque feathers and a 2in royal blue pātiki taniko band. The design is inspired by a Māori belief that water has many moods, and the color blue symbolizes wisdom, introspection and the power of the sea. These designer kākahu exhibit heirloom quality, and have been featured in renowned publications like Vogue, Vanity Fair, Tatler and Glamour Magazine. Crafted with strict adherence to tikanga (cultural customs) and guidance from kaumatua, these modern kākahu are made by a whanau (family) business in Aotearoa (New Zealand).
We have stock on-hand and can ship your order in 3-5 business days. If you need your Korowai sooner, please let me know and I will do my best to accommodate you. Thanks, Hiria.

These Korowai are categorised as FRAGILE GARMENTS and need special care and attention to see it last as a multi-generational heirloom.
Spot clean only - do not machine wash or handwash. Do not twist or wring. Do not tumble dry. Do not dry clean. Never iron. Due to the fragile nature of the feathers, you will risk damaging your Korowai if you do not follow these strict care instructions.
