Beautiful Rangiahua Huggies crafted from stainless steel with a 18K Gold-Plated PVD coating by Waihonga.
Rangiahua is a meeting place. Near our home, Rangiahua is the place where freshwater meets salt. Conceptualised as a moment in time, this design depicts the sky being overtaken by a wave of warmth as dark descends and stars emerge. A meeting of day and night, of sky and heavens.
In Te Reo Māori, Waihonga means nectar - the sweet, sugary juice of a plant which attracts insects or birds to pollinate the flower.
Ambrosia Crum - Ngāpuhi, Ngāti Whātua is the creative behind Waihonga. She is an architectural designer and worked previously as a heritage advisor caring for Māori architectural taonga.
Ambrosia's most rewarding venture to date though, has been becoming māmā to her boys Troy and Brodi. Ambrosia and her partner Blair purchased their first property near Ōkaihau to return home to their whānau and enjoy recious time with their pēpi. Waihonga allows Ambrosia to focus on her creative practice, connect with her Māoritanga in new ways and create a solid foundation for her whānau.
Our vision is to create taonga to adorn and enrich our kāinga with expressions of te ao Māori to nourish the desire to connect, celebrate and express our own cultural identity.
Designed in Aotearoa
