Konei has recently opened a flagship shop in Manukau, selling Māori and Pacifica made beauty products, jewellery and gift friendly items like Kāri. They design and create contemporary Māori jewellery, art, and homewares, all of which are beautiful, and none expensive. Iti, based in Rotorua, has a stronger focus on traditional Māori crafts and design, with taonga carved from bone, and harakeke products. If you know someone who loves colourful and intricate patterns, then these gorgeous A3 prints of works by Karere Brown, a Māori artist of Ngāti Porou and Rongowhakaata descent might be a perfect gift. The just launched Z the Great is a Māori owned clothing business for tamariki up to 6 years old.
