White Poi Earrings – Handcrafted Māori-Inspired Jewellery

Poi have been part of te ao Māori for generations, each carried with purpose. Tāne used poi as a martial training tool — building wrist strength, flexibility, and reflexes for hand-to-hand combat and the handling of short weapons like the patu and mere. Wāhine used poi for performance and storytelling, and to keep their hands agile for the intricate art of traditional weaving. Two paths, one taonga.

These earrings honour that tradition. Inspired by the graceful arc of poi in motion, each pair is handcrafted in Aotearoa New Zealand with care and intention — a wearable pūrākau you'll reach for again and again.
