"A marae is a complex of carved buildings and grounds that belongs to a particular iwi (tribe), hapū (sub tribe) or whānau (family). The Māori people see their marae as tūrangawaewae - their place to stand and belong. Marae's are used for meetings, celebrations, funerals, educational workshops and other important tribal events".
We've left our Marae (meeting house) plain as each iwi will have their own unique design. We leave you to paint or carve your own culture and heritage onto these pieces or simply leave plain.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION - PLEASE READ:
This product is crafted by us in our backyard workshop. This is part of our DIY (do it yourself) collection, so there will still be rough spots that need to be sanded, as the soft pine tends to "feather" a little when cut. It is up to you to finish the sanding to your liking before decorating with paint or choice of finish. Please read the labels on paint and finishes to ensure they are child safe before use!
If you are wanting perfectly cut and sanded edges and everything in completely straight alignment/rows then this product may not be for you. We think it adds to the character, charm, and individual uniqueness of this resource.
