Introducing...Pohutukawa 'Rhubarb Jam'
Custom order opens tomorrow
In Aotearoa we are never very far from the coast. And the Pohutukawa, a typically northern coastal beauty, is beloved throughout our islands. The mere sight of it can feel like the warmth of the sun, like the carefree joy of childhood, and reminiscent of the fun of summer adventures.
The flowers are colourful and delicate, while the Pohutukawa tree itself is rugged and resilient. It happily braves the wilderness, bringing a splash of floral fireworks to steep unforgiving cliffs as well as serene beaches. It will not shy away from the elements, not even an active volcano. This flower represents adaptability and fearlessness, things the world is asking of us all more than ever.
This second ever release of our Pohutukawa design is the delectable Rhubarb Jam, woven in a blend of 78% Cotton and 22% Tencel. It is soft, drapey, and moldable after the first wash, making it a summer breeze to wrap with. Divine for a new squish, it will just as easily support your toddler in comfortable and breathable multi-layered carries.
This limited release will be sold via custom order on a first come first served basis. You can choose your size of wrap and how you would like it hemmed, or for ring slings you can choose your ring colour and the style of shoulder.
(We will edit this post to include the form link where you can enter your details.)
Pricing in NZD will be as follows: ring slings 195, size 3 is 210, size 4 is 225, size 5 is 240, size 6 is 260, size 7 is 280, requests for other lengths absolutely welcome!
