This gorgeous collectible Kiwi toy is one of a set of 6 seated Kiwi, and is called Kia Ora.

Kia ora is now a common New Zealand greeting, but originally was a Maori greeting meaning "be well and healthy". 

Kia Ora Kiwi is a lovely caramel brown plush Kiwi toy, with Kia Ora embroidered on her side, and a hei-tiki ( greenstone tiki pendant) embroidered on her tummy. 

Lovely and soft, she looks great sitting with the rest of the set.

A portion of the sale price of this kiwi goes to the Whangarei Native Bird Recovery Centre, to assist them in the raising of Kiwi chicks and the recovery of injured Kiwi.  So thankyou for helping to Save the Kiwi!
