Ocarina Puoro is a wind instrument embellished in traditional kōwhaiwhai patterns, and is a 3D printed contemporary puoro. 

The patterns are of a whai (stingray) - a significant animal in Te Moana nui a Kiwa that represents protection, wit, and adaptability.

Six colourways are available. Four are printed with special gradient, iridescent filament inspired by the seasons - Raumati, Ngahuru, Kōanga and Hōtoke.
