About Us

About Kaeā

Kaeā, in Te Reo, means to wander, lead or teach. To wander bravely, to lead respectfully, and to teach responsibly. 

Kaeā is a creative boutique that aims to share learnings of Te Ao Māori while creating products that celebrate our connections to the whenua (lands), our culture, our tupuna, and our whakapapa. We create and sell products that we believe to showcase the beauty of the indigenous culture of Aotearoa, with all taonga being sourced from Aotearoa or created from products sourced from Aotearoa. 

 

Our Kaupapa 

My aim when creating Kaeā Boutique was to create something that would allow me to explore my auahatanga (creativity) while on maternity leave with my first pepi. 

Everything Kaeā creates is with respect and gratitude for the resources gifted by Papatūānuku.
