The Kōwhai Collective
Support the power of creativity by choosing a hand-crafted gift from this inspiring social enterprise. From jewellery to toys to unique art pieces, you'll find items infused with heart and soul.
The Kōwhai Collective started in 2011 as Pay It Forward - a creative social enterprise in the suburb of Mairehau. Since then it has morphed into The Kōwhai Collective and has changed location twice. We now inhabit an awesome little shop in The Salt District close to Little High.
The collective currently includes artists, jewellery makers, textile artists, glass and ceramic work, toy makers, and woodwork.
