This framed tauira is created using harakeke (flax) harvested from Omaka in Blenheim. The harakeke has been boiled to preserve it and was saved from the off-cuts of a kete. Tōtōpū refers to the robust or sturdy nature of this fibre. Although each whenu is so small, when woven together it is so strong.
Frame size:
Height: 38 cm
Width: 30 cm
Tungi ate ururua, kia tupu whakaritorito te tupu o te harakeke.
Clear away the undergrowth so the new shoots of the harakeke can spring up.
