Stylish Tote Bag Te Rā - Perfect for Shopping, Beach Trips & Daily Use | Durable & Fashionable Carryall

Product Description

This reusable tote bag made from heavy 450gsm cotton canvas features a design inspired by Te Rā, the only known customary Māori sail in existence.

At nearly four and a half metres high, Te Rā carries a wealth of historical and cultural significance. Normally held in the collection of the British Museum, this is the first time this unique sail has returned to Aotearoa New Zealand.

Woven from harakeke likely over 200 years ago using techniques that have since needed to be relearned, this masterpiece is accompanied by two younger sibling sails made recently by Te Rā Ringa Raupā, a group of highly skilled weavers.
