The Story – O TE MOTU:
Inspired by the past resourcefulness of our tupuna (ancestors), a present awareness of environmental impact, and a desire for a sustainable future, this kaupapa was born from a homeschooling project with our daughter, Mereana Wairua (8), also known as BOSS KOTIRO. Through O TE MOTU CREATIONS LTD, she learns numeracy, literacy, creativity, social skills, and—most importantly—who she is and how she contributes to society.

Care Instructions:
Treat your earrings like the taonga (treasures) they are. Handle gently. Clean with a damp cloth and allow to air dry.
