Ko Wai Mātou?
Ko Haromi Te Ata Pera Karaitiana ahau, māmā to Āio te Ata and aunty to Pera - the Pēpi behind Pera me Āio.
My dad, Rakai Karaitiana (our Kolo), is our in-house designer and a respected Māori artist who's hand-drawn all our beautiful designs. He brings Te Ao Māori to life in every Pattern and Manu drawing.
Driven by Aroha and nurturing our pēpi and whenua, we craft organic, Māori-inspired pēpi kākahu and taonga with ethical natural materials - gentle on sensitive skin, kind to Papatūānuku. Rooted in Kaitiakitanga, Manaakitanga, and Whanaungatanga, our small-batch creations are made to last and honour whakapapa for generations.
