Created by Graham Tipene in honour of Matariki, the design is inspired by the quiet, powerful moments just before dawn, when the spirit world and the world of the living briefly share space – a time of deep connection. Matariki is a time to dream, hold ceremony, and share space, bringing us together to welcome the New Year. Inspired by dawn views at Takaparawhau, this design captures the spirit of Matariki in Aotearoa.
Graham Tipene is a renowned Tā Moko artist and cultural advisor from Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei. His work is deeply rooted in the traditions and values of mana whenua, and he is celebrated for his intricate designs that honour Māori heritage and identity. One of his works, Te Tatau Kaitiaki, is the carving on the doors to the entrance to Te Ao Mārama, the South Atrium.
BLUNT Umbrellas are built to last, tested to extremes and are modular for repairability.
Sustainability is one of the core pillars of BLUNT - their umbrellas are designed on a 'repair, not replace' philosophy. There are multiple BLUNT workshops across the globe to repair their products, as well as encouraging customers to do their own repairs at home.
"When you love, keep, and repair your BLUNT products they will reward you with reliability, confidence and protection for years to come."
Please note: Colours may appear slightly different due to photography lighting and individual screen settings.
