$54.95

This product is sold out

Small but full of spirit, this limited-run New Zealand Silver-Eye (Tauhou) brooch is a symbol of curiosity, adaptability, and the beauty of connection. Hand-assembled from delicate resins and detailed with intricate etched, printed and painted accents, this tiny traveller—whose Māori name means ‘stranger’—reminds us that even the smallest visitors can leave the biggest impressions. Whether it brings to mind misty morning gardens, a love for native birds, or the joy of spotting a feathered friend flitting by, this tauhou is a little treasure with a lot of heart. Love this design? You’ll find it also available as an enamel pin, while stocks last.

40mm x 73mm (H x W)

DESIGN STORY

See those white feathers around its beady peepers? That's why the tauhou is also called the silvereye.

Each piece is made from laser-cut and layered resin, hand assembled, hand painted and released in limited quantities. As all of our designs are lovingly glued, assembled and painted by hand there can be fingerprint marks and very slight variations and blemishes from piece to piece. Due to the hand-mixed nature of the resins in our designs, it is also common and normal to find tiny flecks or bubbles in the resin layers. All in all, this just makes each piece as special and unique as you are.

Brooch clasps, necklace chains, and jump rings are made from silver-plated steel. Earrings hooks and posts are made from high quality, hypoallergenic stainless steel.

CARE

Please be aware that resin is akin to ceramic and glass and therefore may be damaged if dropped or knocked. Due to the use of high quality silver-plating in our brooch clasps, tarnishing and oxidisation can occur, producing black and gold discolouration. As with all silver products, you can simply restore it using a silver cloth. Keep your Erstwilder companion neatly tucked away in this box when not being worn, avoid contact with perfumes, lotions, water, and excessive sunlight and you’ll have a trusted friend for years to come.
