The werewere kōkako is on the $50 note. This one is distinctive because of its bright blue colour – making it stand out in New Zealand’s green bush. Its Māori name originates from its colour, which is akin to the hue seen on the wattles of the kōkako. Yet, while the majority of this mushroom is blue, the spores have a slight red tinge. It is endemic to New Zealand and can only be found here.
Our Werewere Kōkako guitar strap features a locally woven cotton base material with an expertly embroidered Werewere Kōkako design. Premium leather handcrafted and embossed by our local craftsmen is tied together with this beautiful Werewere Kōkako design using solid brushed brass buckles.

Customer Reviews
The strap is great, unique and very comfortable. It matches my Taylor CS mini beautifully. As a mycologist, I couldn't resist this depiction of the mushroom.
