The Old Bones design is inspired by the idea of ancestral hopes and dreams being seeded in their descendants.
Old Bones.
Named for ancestral dreams and deeds.
Memories of tūpuna seeding in our bones.
Inspired by the smell inside our whare tūpuna of age and history, connections, warm wood, shared breath.
Road trips with kaihana to walk on whenua, kaputī and visits with whanaunga on their farms - these are the moments that lead us to the feathers that adorn these and our other befeathered earrings.
