This man-made
fiber used in this blanket draws inspiration from the cloaks
worn by the Maori chiefs, elders, and other respected
members of the tribes.
Feathers were predominantly used for both form (beauty and
texture) and function (warmth). Cloaks were valuable
as a key piece of clothing in winter as well as status
symbol.
The kahuria range includes other items that can be viewed in
the
cushions and throws and
treasure collections.
