About Stoniture Hōpa
He hōpa a Stoniture i whakaaweahia e te āhua o te kōhatu māori. He tapa piko tō te hoahoa me te mata tautoko whānui hei whakarato i te nohoanga hāneanea, whakatā hoki. Ka āta panoni te pūwhā o te nohoanga i raro i te taumaha, nō reira ka whai te mata nohoanga i te tinana. He rākau te hanganga o te tinana, ā, kei roto i te nohoanga he pūwhā me te kiato 30. Ko te rahi o te hōpa he 110 mā te 95 mā te 50 henemita. Ko te āhua māmā i whakaarohia hei whakaata i te ngāwari o te kōhatu māori, hei hanga hoki i te wairua taunga. I hoahoatia a Stoniture ki Tehran i te tau 2023.
