Fijian ‘masi’ is produced by village women on islands such as Vatulele. A renewable resource, masi is made by harvesting strips of bark from specially grown paper-mulberry trees. Each piece takes days to process, involving repeated pounding, soaking and stretching. These traditional skills are passed on from generation to generation, with certain clans being considered the experts in masi-making. The uneven quality of the masi reflects its handmade origin.

Masi bookmark is mounted on black card, which can be gently removed from backing when ready to use.

"Davui" is the Fijian word for conch shell. These beautiful shells hold a significant place in Fijian culture as ceremonial items. They are used as trumpets to announce traditional events such as the anointing of a new chief. A small hole is bored at the tip of the shell and the herald blows through this, creating a low wailing sound that seems to resonate with mysteries of an ancient oceanic past.

Maria Rova lives in Nadi, Fiji. Her artwork is inspired by the wildlife, culture, and scenery of the Pacific, especially that of the remote island of Taveuni to the north of the Fiji group, which is home to her husband’s traditional clan. Sustained by forest and reef, Taveuni villagers still follow many of the ancient cultural practices that give Fijian people their unique identity. The artist wishes to acknowledge gratefully the impact that her Fijian family has had on her work. 

Hand-painted on barkcloth, using a stenciling technique learnt from traditional ‘masi kesa’ artists. ‘Ika Lailai’ means ‘little fish’ in Fijian. This painting is one of several works of art by M. W. Rova that are inspired by the myriad of tiny fish that make Fiji’s coral reefs a teaming underwater zoo of life and color.

“Vonu” is the Fijian word for turtle, painted here in the cool colours of our tropical waters. Turtles are revered in island legends as symbols of wisdom and blessing. Though their numbers have been dwindling, greenback, hawksbill, and leatherback turtles still visit Fiji’s beaches to breed as they journey through the Pacific Ocean along ancient migratory paths.

Water-based paint on barkcloth. This design was inspired by a fish named after our islands: the ‘Fiji Devil’ (Abudefduf coeruleus). These bright blue damsel fish can often be seen darting about in rock pools or playing hide and seek amongst branches of coral. Washed into tidal pools by changing currents, they are one of the first of many thrilling sights waiting to greet the visitor to Fiji’s reefs.

Water-based paint on masi. These little sea creatures certainly have some fascinating habits. Male seahorses take fatherhood to a level that would be the envy of many a human feminist! Males can be distinguished by a pouch, located just below their stomachs. The female deposits her eggs into this pouch, and dad is ‘pregnant’ with the babies for several weeks before they are born!

Water-based paint, with coral sand from the sun-soaked beaches of Fiji…With its delicately curved, waxy petals and unique fragrance, the frangipani is the quintessential tropical flower in the minds of many. Frangipanis are synonymous with celebration in Fiji: strings of them are worn around the neck during dances and feasts. And a frangipani tucked behind the right ear shows that the wearer is in a relationship, while a blossom sported on the left announces that the wearer is free and single!

This mixed media painting features white coral sand from the palm-fringed shores of the Yasawa Islands, and dark, volcanic sand from Nadi’s Wailoaloa Beach. Bright blue starfish (Linckia laevigata) are a common sight among the shifting sands and coral outcrops of Fiji’s lagoons, where they add their vivid colour to the symphony of beauty waiting to be discovered beneath the waves.

Tall palms bend as the night wind tosses their branches, their long fronds whipping and rustling like cascades of silver ribbons. Light of the new moon catches on the waves as they swell and recede in endless rhythm: the breathing of mother nature.

Mystery surrounds the arrival of Iguanas in Fiji, for these creatures are closely related to the jungle Iguanas of Central America. Could they, or their eggs, have floated across the Pacific on rafts of vegetation in a bygone age? Today, as they struggle to survive encroaching civilization and imported predators, Iguanas have become favoured symbols of Fiji native wildlife.

This Fiji Frog Masi painting was inspired by a recent story in our local newspaper: For the last twenty years, the Fiji Ground Frog or “Boto Ni Viti” (Platymantis vitianus) was presumed extinct as a result of the invasion of mongoose and giant toads. However, it has just been rediscovered in the dense rainforests of the Nakauvadra Range. The Boto Ni Viti, one of two native species of frogs, is a great athlete, capable of leaping and swimming at speed. The patterns on my frogs are inspired by traditional Fijian barkcloth designs.

The Heliconia flower is part of the ginger family and gets its name from the Greek work Helikonios. Also known as  Lobster claws, wild plantains and false Bird of Paradise. 

If you take a ride along Viti Levu’s eastern side along the Kings Road, from Rakiraki down that corridor, Tailevu towards Suva; that is one of the greenest places in Viti Levu. The eastern side is very lustrous and has beautiful scenery and vegetation. If you sit by the window on a journey along this corridor, you will never miss seeing this flower, it grows everywhere. 

If you try to get a bouquet from a florist it will cost you handsomely, but if you take a trip down the Kings Road you can stop by anywhere and pick your own, growing wild. 

Epi said "I wanted to capture one of the many beautiful flowers growing around Fiji. I love this flower because of its beautiful colours, orange to red, how the colours blend. The tonal expression you can create. Some ginger flowers are orange all throughout, many are just red. Look at the bottom part and how it changes colour towards the upper edge, it changes from darkness to light in the Heliconia.

Notice how the petals are connected, along the middle spine. One branching to the left, the other to the right, it goes right up to the very top of the flower, connected in the centre. Every bunch of flower, the shading is done, the bottom is dark to the upper edge."

About Pacific Produce Pte Ltd

The production of VCO at source has taken us close to full circle. Back in 1988 coconuts and copra was our main cash crop and source of living. With margins squeezed and profits low we moved on to alternatives such as taro, kava, turmeric, ginger and pineapple.

With the emergence of virgin coconut oil as a healthy alternative we turned full circle, replanting coconuts and commencing the production of VCO with our standards set very high.

Living in a fairly remote part of the Island we have people from the villages around us to come and work – planting coconut, harvesting pineapples, producing coconut oil, working in the office – earning a living for themselves and their families. We are very proud of what we have achieved as a team, and proud of the quality of our fruits and our coconut oil. With their help and setting the bar high, we are confident we will be producing high quality organic virgin coconut oil for many many years to come.

This time Tai’s freediving trips inspired a fish soap holder. Simple and unmistakeably fishy, this soap holder features 3 draining holes to keep your favourite soap dry.

A fun piece bound to brighten up any bathroom! 

The Hibiscus is a big, red flower that grows everywhere in Fiji. It has large petals which make it ideal to hold soaps of all sizes, with a drainage hole in the centre of the flower.

This soap dish would particularly suit those who make their own soaps or prefer soaps with more unique designs, due to its larger size.

Hibiscus is also a festival in Fiji which first started in 1956. The Hibiscus Festival is held every August in Suva, with a beauty pageant and crowning of the ‘Hibiscus Queen’.

This Fiji wall hanging is a great reminder of the tropical fish that can be seen swimming along in Fiji’s pristine waters. This simple yet elegant fish wall hanging can be mounted on the wall through the hole at the top, either by putting a nail through it or using string.

A lovely momento of a snorkelling trip in Fiji, or in Tai’s case, freedriving trips in his native Lau waters. This piece is bound to bring a smile to your face and remind you of the sunshine waters of Fiji.

Masi is a famous Fijian cloth that is beautiful and natural, and complements the MOP shells. A beautiful Fijian treasure, Mother of Pearl earrings coupled with a Masi pouch, ideal as a gift. 

Rako have carefully designed each piece so that the natural Fijian materials used have no customs restrictions. Each piece of Mother of Pearl shell has been carefully processed - this means it has been sanded, oiled and polished. 

The only materials that have customs restrictions are feathers, Clam Shell, Red Vaivai seeds and any other seeds. That's why none of the Rako jewellery range contains these items. These are truly special, hand-made pieces that are unique to Fiji and Rako's Rotuman roots.

Elegant natural necklace made out of Fijian Coconut shell

This elegant necklace is hand-made by Rako Pasefika out of Fijian coconut shell sourced from the island of Rotuma. Using naturally abundant Coconuts, each mini-button is individually shaped out of coconut shell to just the right size, before being drilled to create the perfect incision. The coconut buttons are strung together using cotton fiber chord which is hand-woven.

Each of the 30 buttons is just over 1cm in diameter, with each piece being woven together to form the intricate design. There are three rows of coconuts with 5cm of chord either side before the coconut section starts. This is a delicate piece which sits close to the neck, similar to a choker necklace.

Customs-friendly jewellery

Rako Pasefika have carefully designed their stunning pieces to ensure that the natural materials used have no customs restrictions. Each Coconut shell has been carefully sanded, oiled and polished, meaning it has been processed and poses no customs threat.

This piece is also made out of Mother of Pearl shell and Vau. The mother of pearl like all others used in Rako's jewellery is grinded, sand papered and shined to show its amazing color. It is than cut and shaped to give a hook like appearance. The Vau is in its original color after it has been soaked, dried and shredded to give it that light brown color.

This piece is made out of mother of pearl, vau and cotton chord. The vau is made from the bark of a tree which is shredded then soaked in sea water for 2-3 weeks before it is finely shredded and put in the sun to dry. After drying, the vau is soaked in red dye to give it color.

This piece is inspired by the Armea bird which is found only on the island of Rotuma.
