Be embraced by a piece of New Zealand
Wrapt in New Zealand creates hand woven gifts that represent a genuine piece of New Zealand. Your guests will be impressed by the intricacy and intrigued by the authentic references to New Zealand’s cultural and natural heritage. A Wrapt in New Zealand creation is a stunning, one-of-a-kind, enduring reminder of your, or your visitors, time in New Zealand.
Wrapt in New Zealand uses Merino and rare breed wools, possum down and alpaca, cashmere and mohair fleeces from animals raised in New Zealand. These yarns are spun and dyed by Kiwi artisans before being transformed by a sixth-generation New Zealander into stunning, one-of-a-kind, hand-woven pieces inspired by the colours of the birds of Aotearoa:
Kea, Kereru, Kiwi, Kokako, Pukeko and Tui
Kea (Bernard Spragg)
Kereru (Jen Parke)
Kiwi (Maungatautari Ecological Island Trust)
Kokako (Nita)
Pukeko
Tui (Sid Mosdell)
Wrapt in New Zealand has an uncompromising commitment to craftsmanship. It takes several days to transform more than a kilometre of yarn into a finished piece. Individual motifs inspired by Maori & Pacifica design are painstakingly added, uniquely customising each piece.
