The physical Garth Wilson Jade gallery is now closed for Winter. The online shop is open and items are able to be purchased anytime.

Collection: Koru

The Koru represents the new shoots of the fern plant opening so it symbolises growth, harmony and new beginnings.

It also represents the family as a whole, an individual person, an event, time, place, accomplishment or achievement that has happened in your life.

They were traditionally tattooed on the body and carved in the main poles and panels in the Whare/house.  The Maori had an oral language.  They told their life story from the Koru's that had been carved and tattooed.  It is up to the person to tell the story of what their Koru represents.
