Waihonga Piki Earrings
These beautiful earrings are from Waihonga, based near Ookaihau
The Piki design speaks of intellectual achievement, advancement and growth - the striving upwards for betterment.
The Poutama pattern is associated with Tāne-te-wānanga, the deity of knowledge and the forest, who ascended the steps of the poutama to the twelfth realm, Te Toi-o-ngā-rangi, to seek supreme mātauranga.
Wear it day in, day out! This luxe jewellery collection is designed to last and be loved.

10mm Huggie earrings, 12mm Piki pendant charm.

Note: PVD coating can be up to 10 times stronger than regular gold or silver plating, and is highly resistant to tarnishing and scratching. The result = far more resistance to wear.
"Ko Ambrosia Crum ahau. He uri o Ngāpuhi me Ngāti Whātua. I am Ambrosia, the creative behind Waihonga. I have worked previously as an architectural designer and heritage advisor caring for Māori architectural taonga. My most rewarding venture to date though has been becoming māmā to my little boy Troy. My partner Blair and I recently purchased our first property near Ōkaihau to return home to our whānau to enjoy this precious time with our pēpi. Waihonga allows me to focus on my creative practice, connect to my Māoritanga in new ways and create a solid foundation for my whānau."
