PUANGA Crewneck Sweater (Silver Stars)

$59.99
Tax included

New Puanga Crew Sweater for Musos! Puanga is the Māori name for the star Rigel, located in the Orion constellation. It is a bright star that is often seen in the late autumn and early winter night sky, and its appearance is a significant marker for the Māori New Year. Because it is higher in the sky, some Iwi would see Puanga, before the Matariki cluster of stars at the beginning of the Māori New year due to being based in gullies surround by hills or mountains. Therefore celebrating the Māori New Year as 'Puanga' rather than 'Matariki'.

Matariki is the Māori name for the cluster of stars also known as the Pleiades. It rises in midwinter and for many Māori, it heralds the start of a new year. The cluster is presented on this crew in a sparkling metallic silver and underlined with a bass and treble clef.

This Crew Neck Sweat, available in adults and kids sizes, was created in collaboration with Los Love Tattoo based at Thirdline Tattoo in Historic Village, Tauranga.

This design is available in various colour combos and all come with a metallic silver star cluster reflecting Matariki and a music note for the star Tupuārangi, sometimes associated with creativity and music. There is also a sneaky Bass and Treble Clef underlining the word Matariki!

These Crews are only available around the time of Matariki, pick yours up today!
