ORDERING NOTE: Sold in Packs of 2

All our pieces are named after a member of our family and are organised by generation to align with the style.

Our Seini earrings are a stunning half moon design and are named after one of Kalisi’s daughters. She had six daughters, including our mother; this pair is named after the ever graceful Seini.

In this pair of earrings, the cloth is white as it is unpainted (ngatu is painted barkcloth in Tonga; tapa is the unpainted cloth). They show off the amazing fibres of the cloth that have been beaten over many months of collective work. These earrings are made from a ngatu that belonged to Seini’s sister, Nia. She gifted it to us because it was too damaged to continue to be gifted as koloa, malo 'aupito lahi.

MATERIAL: Tapa - Unpainted beaten mulberry cloth Resin. Ngatu - Painted barkcloth Resin

TO NOTE: Measurements are approximate. The items are handmade so there will be variance between each item as they are made from handmade and handpainted materials; each piece intends to showcase the skill of Tongan / Moana Pacific artisans who made the original works. Many of the pieces use natural components so some variance can also be attributed to this. Colour Variation - Please note while all measures are taken to ensure the colouring of our photos match the actual product, there may be slight variations due to device colour matching.
