It’s a tara iti / fairy tern pin!

This enamel pin is inspired by New Zealand’s rarest and most at-risk bird, the precious tara iti or fairy tern. There are only 40 of these shorebirds in existence. Their population hangs in the balance and is kept afloat thanks to dedicated conservationists.

I’ll be donating $5 from each pin sold within the next two weeks to the NZ Fairy Tern Charitable Trust to help them protect and advocate for these vulnerable birds.

Pins are ethically produced under a registered ethical certification by a certified B Corp. They are made using non toxic, high quality materials that will last.
