matariki Home
Out of respect for Maori culture and traditions and with a great love for Maori art we named this website Matariki. Matariki is the Maori name for the group of stars also known as the Pleiades star cluster and referred to as the traditional Maori New Year.
As part of the trading house Oceania, Matariki is an important link between New Zealand and Maori culture and the European customer who likes Pacific artefacts. Our mission is importing or by means of an agency representing products, which are created in New Zealand and have a certain exclusivity one cannot find in Europe.
Our goal is to make attainable that Pacific beauty, that combination of colour and exquisite radiation to those Europeans who are interested. In Europe the interest in Pacific Islands as well as Polynesian art is enormous.
Matariki wants to become a pivot to you and offer the possibilities to let you choose in a simple way out of several artefacts that have such an exotic beauty and strength that they change your interior immediately.
We offer many possibilities for everyone who wants to give a special gift to a loved one, something you cannot find in Europe. Make a choice out of wood-carvings, sculpture, paintings, jewellery, accessories, leather ware, and functional artefacts from different parts of Oceania. All with that Pacific touch, a real smile from the Pacific...
We invite you to enter the website of Matariki.
