The Weave credenza combines traditional craftsmanship using wood and metal, with the skill and artistic form of three woven triptych panels created by Māori rāranga artist Bronwynn Billens, Ngati Tama, Te Atiawa, Te Arawa. The result is a contemporary functional art credenza that celebrates Aotearoa New Zealand design. This credenza, designed by Andrew Davies, was inspired by his observations of the patterns and texture used in traditional Māori rāranga/weaving and the stories told through this woven form. It looks to celebrate the design and patterns, setting the triptych woven panels in a simple frame, deliberate so as not take away from the individual beauty. Each credenza door panel is hand-woven using harakeke/flax from the same plant, which is carefully dried before being weaved. Although the pattern is the same, each door panel is unique by nature of it being hand-woven. The weave pattern chosen for this credenza is called whakatutu – meaning to construct, build up and stand strong. “I am passionate about the weaving together of natural fibres in a traditional manner as passed down by our tūpuna/ancestors.” Bronwynn Billens, Ngati Tama, Te Atiawa, Te Arawa. The three hinged soft closed doors are finished with custom knurled handles, and an adjustable timber shelf behind each door. As beautiful on the front as the back, the credenza is made up of wooden slats wrapping around the back and curving around the sides. This credenza has been crafted to be treasured by those who are the guardians of it.
