Our Vision

Theophora - "Bearer of the Divine Gift."

That's the heart of our name, and heart of everything we create. Each piece, from beeswax gifts to ritual-adjacent treasures, is made with care, intention, and respect for the ancient Greek world that inspires us.

At Theophora, we’re sharing pieces of devotion and creativity, reimagined for the modern world, and made right here in New Zealand.

The Vision - Five Phases of Maturity

The growth of Theophora is structured across five distinct phases of development, each adding a new layer of artistry, infrastructure, and healing to the ecosystem.

Where we are today

Today, Theophora is in Phase 2: The Senses.

• Melissae by Theophora: The alchemies of the hive are currently being refined in our studio as we finalise a comprehensive collection of beeswax-enriched goods. From the steady light of liturgical tapers to the deep nourishment of our salves, scrubs, and lip balms, we are perfecting the formulas that will bring the golden, protective radiance of the bee to both your hearth and your skin. 

• Aphrodite by Theophora: Currently transitioning from concept to creation, Aphrodite is being developed as a suite of botanical-based products designed to transform the act of bathing into a sacred ritual of purification and self-devotion.

• Psyche by Theophora: Currently in its germinal stage, Psyche is being cultivated to offer products focused on the regenerative power of the garden. We are presently preparing our first selections of butterfly host plants, ensuring everything is ready for our first sowing season to honor the transformative journey of the soul through the restoration of the earth.

Established Connections

• Clotho by Theophora: We have finalised the setup of this specialised cross-stitch completion and restoration service and are accepting commissions.

• Hestia by Theophora: We are currently journaling our kitchen and culinary rituals and generational recipes to share.
