Hawaii’s popular green sea turtle, or honu, were said to be the guides for the first voyagers to Hawaii. These ancient creatures that lived through the age of the dinosaurs are alive and well today. Reaching maturity at the average age of 25 years, they grow to as much as 45 inches and weigh in at a hefty 200 to 400 pounds. This piece is a tribute to the petroglyphic honu of the Hawaiians, an icon so much a part of our island heritage. This handmade, craftily detailed work of art echoes the honu’s magnificence to give them the distinction they so deserve. You can hang these on your wall using the convenient keyhole in the masonite backing of your tile or for practical purposes use as a trivet to place hot dishes or pots on. |
