This stunning Kahu Huruhuru (Full Feather Cloak) by David Grace (Ngati Pou, Ngati Mahuta, Ngati kahungunu) is a highly treasured piece, handcrafted from Turkey Feathers and silver tips, it is one of the most impressive pieces to be featured on our website. Having pieces like this for dispaly is thanks to our relationship with our sister gallery, Kura Gallery, Wellington, Aotearoa.

This beautiful cloak has sold - however, we do take commissions for Kahu Huruhuru and korowai from this highly skilled emerging Maori artist.
   We also carry cloaks from other exceptional weavers.

The KorowaI (Māori cloak) was a garment made in early Maori times and was generally woven or made from traditional materials like flax and feathers. They are worn as a mantle of prestige and honour. Nowadays, Korowai is the more widely recognised term for Maori cloaks, but this traditionally refers to a particular type of Kākahu, woven from flax and adorned with tassels. Everyone has different reasons for wearing Kākahu on their graduation day whether it be a sense of identity, a graduation acknowledgement, a congratulatory gift or a connection to our NZ heritage and family tradition.
