Tauihu — Limited Edition 1,000-Piece Puzzle
A waka tauihu — the carved prow — rises against a sky moving through deep blue to brilliant gold and amber at the horizon. In the far distance, across still water, a waka makes its way home. The carving dominates the foreground in extraordinary detail: every koru, every surface alive with the craft of the tōhunga whakairo who made it.
This is a puzzle about looking closely. The tauihu rewards the hours you spend with it — the more you study the carving, the more you find.
Part of the Theresa Reihana series — collect all 10.
Good for: experienced puzzlers who enjoy intricate detail work, gifting, or collectors building the full series.
What you are getting:
- 1,000 pieces | approx. 50cm × 70cm completed
- Premium blue board for durability and a crisp, rich finish
- Manufactured in Auckland by Holdsons — NZ-made since 1939
