Our journey with Koru Designs

Nau mai, haere mai! Welcome to the heart of Koru Designs, where tradition meets contemporary art. Discover the story behind our mahi, our dedication to crafting authentic Maori carvings, and our passion for sharing a piece of New Zealand's rich culture with you.

Our inspiration behind Maori art

The journey of Koru Designs began with a profound appreciation for the creative nuance of Maori art. For over nine years, this inspiration has driven us to craft unique Maori art products, initially finding a home on Trade Me, and now flourishing on our own website. It's a journey rooted in passion, dedication, and a deep respect for the art form itself.

What makes Koru Designs unique?

In a world of many talented artists, Koru Designs stands out through its commitment to making authentic Maori art accessible to all. We believe that beautiful, meaningful art should be within reach, which is why we strive to offer our unique carvings at an affordable price. This allows more whanau throughout New Zealand to bring a piece of our cultural heritage into their homes.

Our carving process

Each carving at Koru Designs begins with inspiration, often sparked by the incredible work of fellow artists. From there, we channel these ideas into our own unique designs, always with the intention of creating pieces that will resonate with our customers online. Our in-house creation process ensures that every piece is crafted with care and a commitment to quality, ready to be shared with you.

"Beautiful craftsmanship and excellent service. My whanau absolutely loves our new carving from Koru Designs!"
