Valentines Day

The next time you think there are no new gifts
ideas for Valentines Day, think again. If
youve done the flowers and the chocolates once
too often, maybe its time to be thinking about
an eco-friendly gift and has natural beauty. The
craftsmen at the Hawaii-based workshop of Martin
MacArthur have been hard at work creating
innovative new ideas with Koa, the beautiful wood
that grown only in Hawaii. Koa was once a private
luxury reserved exclusively for the early kings
and queens of Hawaii. Today, Koa wood grows on
all the major Hawaiian Islands, but the most
beautiful Koa is found on the Big Island, where
the active volcanic soil is the richest. Koa
offers unmistakable reddish brown colours with a
fluttering pattern known by Hawaiians as
curly. Today, the craftsmen of Martin
MacArthur use Koa wood to create fine Koa
furniture and stunning personal accessories that
you never thought possible with wood.
