The image of the wāhine (woman) is our interpretation of Hiwa, drawn within a taimana (diamond), which again is about a star. The tukutuku patterns on the border of this frame are in lots of nine (matariki reference), we have included the actual constellation in her night hair and her moko kauae (chin) shows the connection between the stars and us here on the whenua (land).
Earring details:
Size: XLRG: 5 - 7cm in length

Ka rawe wēnei hakaniko! Te ātaahua hoki o ngā hakaaro kia hakairia te moemoeā i te mahunga, kia whiua te wawata kia Hiwa-i-te-rangi i te wā a Matariki. Mānawatia a Matariki me ngā pākihi wāhine Māori!
