Pūtōrino totara

This taonga nearly 60cms long, binded with rattan has been burnished plays beautifully and looks stunning.

had i thought come to me yesterday that the puoro holds the essence and in the essence there is a frequency to be hold which might mean that somettimes the taonga may not play for you till you are able to match the frequency of the taonga this is why whakawhanaugatanga with your taonga is time expanding 👈

however that drops in whānau 💗

this taonga is available DM us!
