Tāniko weaving produces a relatively stiff and unyielding fabric, so it was traditionally used to embellish korowai cloaks and other items such as headbands, belts, and jewellery. Often several different strips of tāniko appeared on up to three sides of a korowai cloak.

The tāniko was inspired by the pōtae (hat) made of quality New Zealand wool and designed to accentuate it.

Artist meaning: Aramoana Tipare tāniko features the Aramoana (zigzag) pattern – Aramoana means ‘the pathway to the sea’ and represents many destinations by ocean and waterway. The pathway signifying growth and moving forward in life.

Material: Cotton, Elastic, Synthetic Wool
