The Hive

Welcome to The Hive, located at Pirongia, Franklin Street, 700 in New Zealand. We are an establishment, point of interest, and store that offers a unique collection of Kiwi-inspired artwork and accessories.

One of our featured pieces is a print by Kiwi artist Dannika Tukua, showcasing a Kiwi and Monarch Duo polished copper acorns suspended from a rustic branch twig. These acorn necklaces are made from solid, recycled bullet copperheads with beautiful little acorn caps, measuring approximately 1 inch long. Each necklace comes with a 75cm matching coloured chain with an extender, allowing you to wear these symbolic pieces close to your heart.

In addition to the acorn necklaces, we also offer our popular honeybee brooches with a slice of Kiwiana. These gold or silver bees are adorned with a New Zealand coin, creating a unique and meaningful accessory. The bees are made from brass and heavily plated in gold or silver, while the coins are genuine New Zealand currency.

For those looking for something more whimsical, we have newly made fabric accessories featuring dinosaurs and farmyard designs. These statement pieces are hand-cut and shaped into natural "petals," with several layers of sifted enamel kiln-fired, one at a time. The petals measure approximately 3.8cm x 4cm and come with handmade sterling silver hooks.

If you're in need of a breezy outfit for hot summer days, our handmade rompers are the perfect choice. They are not only stylish but also provide easy access for nappy changing, making them practical and convenient.

For those who appreciate unique kitchen accessories, our limited edition ladies tui apron is a striking and practical addition to your collection. It also makes for a perfect gift or a treat for yourself.

Lastly, we have recently added gorgeous Crossover pinafore and matching bloomers sets to our range. These adorable sets are sure to make your little one look stylish and cute.

At The Hive, we offer a range of unique and meaningful products that celebrate New Zealand and our love for bees. Visit us today to discover the perfect piece that speaks to your heart.
