Mō Mātou - About us

The 'Wāhine Toa' Collection was born from the strength, resilience, and mana of wāhine navigating business, motherhood, and life with courage and creativity.

Haerenga, which means Journey in Te Reo Māori founded by Krystal (Ngapuhi), a proud Māori woman, and her business partner Nikki, this is a partnership built on shared values: whanaungatanga, manaakitanga, and the belief that every challenge has a solution.

Though Nikki is not Māori, she stands alongside this kaupapa with deep respect for te ao Māori, and a genuine commitment to learning, supporting, and uplifting the culture every step of the way. Our brand is Māori-led, grounded in tikanga, and fuelled by the combined strength of two wāhine who back themselves, and each other.

As māmā, creatives, and entrepreneurs, we created Wāhine Toa to honour the unstoppable force that wāhine are: in business, in the home, in our communities. Our jewellery is more than adornment; it's a reflection of identity, strength, and the stories we carry.

No problems, only solutions - that’s the energy behind everything we do 🫶🏼
