Plumeria Maile Type 1 Whale Tail with Tapa Type 2 Design Pendant

Lustrous, fragrant maile with its strong association with Laka goddess of Hawai’ian hula was a symbol of royalty in ancient times. Beautiful maile leaves draped over the shoulders of honorees remain a common sight in Hawai’i at weddings, graduations, and other significant life events. The unmistakable maile pattern on this solid silver work of art makes a lovely statement of bestowed honor and respect.

Hawaiian Tapa design pendant engraved with triangle shapes. Thom's Tapa Designs reflect the traditional Polynesian repeating geometric patterns used in old Polynesia to decorate tapa (kapa).  Tapa made from pounded tree bark was primarily used for clothing before it was replaced with modern textiles such as cotton. Tapa cloth was painted and decorated by rubbing, stamping, stenciling, smoking, or dyeing.
