Description

Toitū – to remain undisturbed, untouched, in it’s entirety.

These hand cut and polished earrings features the word “toitū” stamped onto one earring with your choice of a matching word on the other.  Toitū te Tiriti has become a very important cry of people in Aotearoa New Zealand in 2024 as we move forward as a nation with our founding document, Te Tiriti o Waitangi – The Treaty of Waitangi.  Additionally, this has invited discussion about the other aspects of our world that should also remain undisturbed.  Our land, our language, our culture and our families.

These earrings measure approximately 1cm across and 5cm wide, with letters stamped at 3mm each.  They are available in your choice of metal:

• Soft, warm yellow brass (perfect if you love yellow gold)
• Delicious copper (suits every skin tone)
• Ultra lightweight aluminum (zero tarnish compared to silver!)
• Sterling silver

You will receive one “Toitū” earring and one of each of the following Kupu/Wording as separate earrings.  You can choose which combination you wish to wear on any given day.  This is a set of 5 different earring options.

• Toitū te Whenua (land)
• Toitū te Whānau (family)
• Toitū te Reo (language)
• Toitū te Ao Māori (the Maori world view)
• Toitū te Tiriti (The Treaty of Waitangi)

Your earrings are finished with stainless steel earhooks
