Who Am I
“Expressing our whakapapa through contemporary style”
Designer Deanna Marsh seamlessly weaves contemporary luxury with traditional Māori craftsmanship in her handcrafted fine jewellery collection. As the founder of Shiloh's Way, she creates modern taonga (treasured artifacts) that honour the rich cultural heritage of Aotearoa New Zealand while speaking to today's discerning collector. Inspired by a profound connection to her ancestral homeland, Dee transforms traditional Māori symbolism into sophisticated, wearable art pieces. Each meticulously crafted design serves as a bridge between generations, celebrating the principle of whānaungatanga (kinship and deep connection) expressed through contemporary design and materials. Named for her daughter Shiloh, the brand represents both personal legacy and cultural continuity. Every piece tells a story, inviting collectors to participate in a tradition of meaningful adornment that spans centuries while embracing modern aesthetic sensibilities. Dee's innovative approach to indigenous design has established Shiloh's Way as a leading voice in contemporary Māori luxury goods, creating heirloom-quality pieces that honour tradition while pushing creative boundaries. Shop the Shiloh's Way collection to discover beautifully crafted, culturally significant jewellery that are contemporary fashion statements that celebrate the living heritage of Aotearoa Māori.
