Maori Korowai  or Kahu Huruhuru cloaks for sale.  Buy real feather korowai for graduations, 21st, weddings, tangi, or to keep as a beautiful wall hanging.  Sizes from newborn baby korowai, childrens korowai, and adults korowai and capes.  Maori made in New Zealand, and shipped worldwide.  Buy already made up korowai or design your own. We call these feather cloaks Korowai, but the proper name is Kahu Huruhuru. Most people still call them korowai, including Maori.  The korowai have a taniko trim at the top, then the feathers below. To save time and money, the feathers are machine stitched to the fabric backing, and the taniko is knitted. The korowai is lined. Traditional korowai take many months to make, and are made using a muka (flax fibre) backing, with the feathers hand woven into the fabric. Those traditional kahu huruhuru are hard to find, naturally very expensive because of the amount of work involved, and will degrade more over time than the modern version. Our modern version is available in a wide range of colours, as the chicken feathers can be dyed different colours. The feathers are matched with equally colourful taniko. You can choose from already made korowai, in traditional colours or more modern shades, or choose your own colour scheme. We will help you make your choices, and advise you if we think it will not look good.
