Description

This tukutuku panel was a collaborative work completed by members of Cambridge Māori Women’s Welfare League including Rae Nordstrom.

It is a wooden slat base with half round dowels attached on top and woven together with natural fibres. The pattern creates a natural hold the vertical and horizontal slats in place while revealing changes within the pattern.
