This beautiful ceramic Huia feather has been hand crafted by ceramic artist Michelle Bow.
For Māori the huia was revered as a symbol of nobility, leadership and hierarchy. The white-tipped tail feathers were worn as head adornments to signify chiefs and people of great mana (authority and power).
Michelle creates functional tableware and decorative works that will add style to any home.
Each feather has been handmade, so there will be slight variations in shape, size, and colour.
