Highly Collectable: Paua and Steel Handmade Bag
This is a very special item, usually only available in a select few art galleries in New Zealand.
Designed by leading New Zealand Maori weaver, Erenora Puketapu-Hetet, it is a 10" wide organza-lined bag made from woven steel wire decorated with delicate New Zealand Paua ( abalone) shell pieces.
The end result of the many hours of labour that must go into this exquisite bag is a delightful piece of truly New Zealand art.
You could raise many a wonderful comment, wearing this functional hand bag on your arm, or alternatively hang it on the wall with your other pieces of fine art. Even the sound of the paua pieces hitting each other as you move, is a beauty in itself.
