THINGS WORTH HAVING: What makes your creations the best?
We started with a straightforward belief: create Hawaiian Koa infused designs that are built to last. So we built products where everything is chosen carefully, presented honestly, and backed by service that doesn't disappear after you check out.
I think we all want to surround ourselves with to things that bring meaning and a feeling of pride. To that end, we create unique designs, use other-worldly looking wood, mix in a cultural story and a sense of place -- and you get the warm fuzzy of supporting a small maker trying to carve out a business in Hawaii.
If you want the deeper story on the wood itself, here's the full Hawaiian koa story, and the full wood-anniversary gift guide covers gifts for him and couples too.
