Tuhi Tini Rau Tangihanga Book

Tini Rau is the latest creation by Tuhi Stationery - a Tangihanga Memorial Keepsake/Bilingual Māori Funeral Memory Book - that will help whānau honour memories and find comfort in grief.

This book is a beautifully designed bilingual Māori memory book created to help families capture and cherish memories during the difficult time of a tangihanga or funeral. Unique in its purpose, this book serves as a space to record the presence of those who attended, share stories and memories of your loved one, and offer messages of support to the grieving whānau. It is more than just a guest book - it's a memorial keepsake that allows you to preserve the heartfelt moments of the farewell and continue building a tribute over time.

After the tangihanga, the Tini Rau Memorial Book can become a comforting space for ongoing reflection. Use it to create a memorial scrapbook, adding photos, cards, and messages that offer solace during times of grief. As you look back on the memories, you’ll find comfort in knowing that your loved one’s legacy is preserved in a way that is deeply personal and meaningful.

The Tini Rau Memorial Book is designed with care to ensure it remains a beautiful keepsake over time:

Quality Paper: Printed on thick 120gsm paper, which is ideal for writing messages and attaching photos or cards without bleed-through.
Durable Perspex Cover: Protects the book from smudges and marks as it is passed among friends and family, ensuring it remains in excellent condition.
Bilingual Content: Reflects both Māori and English language, honoring cultural traditions and making it a unique resource for those seeking a connection to Māori heritage.

It has many purposes:

For Those Navigating Grief: Provides a space for families to come together, share memories, and find comfort during grief and loss.
Unique in the Market: A bilingual Māori memorial book designed specifically for funerals and tangihanga, with no similar product currently available.
