Koru

The koru is a symbol of a fern, which is one of New Zealand's most iconic plants. It represents growth, harmony, and new beginnings.
This is a photo of a little red enamelled koru dish upturned on a mirror. It was given to me a few years ago by my aunt who frequently visits New Zealand and almost calls it her second home. I've grown up with her NZ gifts from Maori dolls to paua shell jewellery and as old as I am I still look forward to the little momentoes she brings back from this beautiful country.

This is very cool! It looks like there is a little red light in there!

What a lovely little dish. Great angle to capture this for an abstract shot. I will be turning things upside down looking for future ideas.

Ditto @wakelys - I shall be trying that too. I imagine that red enamel makes is a beautiful dish the right way up too.

I like the Koru dish and turning it upside down gives it a whole new look.
