HARAKEKE, The Flax Plant


Price per Unit (piece): $240.00


HARAKEKE, The Flax Plant is the most versatile plant of the Maori. It is used to make items from footware to food containers, and the dressed fibre is woven to make fine cloaks and the juices at the leaf base are used as antiseptic. People who work flax become absorbed with its possibilities, and seek its subtle variations, they almost become one with their medium.
