Handmade suncatchers using the Tiffany (copperfoil) method.
NZ native kawakawa leaf in either:

Each measure approximately 4cm in length, and 3cm in width. Total length hanging is approximately 8cm from a secure hanging loop with brown leather or suede cord. Perfect size for the rearview mirror or to brighten areas where space comes at a premium!
Packaged with recycled materials to avoid generating unnecessary waste! Can be shipped within NZ and worldwide. Courier is used to ensure your piece arrives intact.
**When you submit an order, please indicate whether you would like option #1 or #2 (patina/glass combination).
The inspiration:
Kawakawa is found in lowland forests, distinctive with its heart-shaped leaves - often riddled with holes from caterpillar munching. The more holes, the better the medicinal quality! In traditional Māori medicine (rongoā), Kawakawa is used to treat a wide variety of ailments. It is considered to be one of the most potent medicinal herbs in rongoā.
Care:
- Made with materials that contain lead. The risk is minimal, but as a precaution wash hands after handling to avoid ingesting particles.
- Best kept inside for longevity.
