Papatuanuku Mother Nature is my inspiration. Since I was a child I've always loved Pounamu greenstone and feeling the energy of different gemstones and crystals. Growing up in the natural world I've learned to appreciate the natural resources all around me from the shells on our coastal shores, the rocks in our rivers and the healing medicine plants all around us. Everything Papatuanuku provides has powerful Mauri or life force energy and all I add is my loving healing intentions to bring you these beautiful unique Taonga.

My Mum and Dad are the inspiration for all my Rongoa (plant medicines) creations. After years of observing my parents implementing Maori traditions and cultural protocols it only feels natural to continue the teachings and help to revive and normalize our Aotearoa plant medicine.   

I work with local suppliers to source my Crystals and Pounamu ethically and I personally hand pick the Rongoa medicine plants from the Forest realm myself, each and every creation available has an origin story of how it came to be.

Each of my creations is blessed with loving intentions and Karakia/Kaupare.

Mauri Ora e te iwi, thank you so much for sharing this space and your support.
