The Symbolism of Hawaiian Figurines

Hawaiian figurines serve as more than just decorative items; they are steeped in the islands’ history and carry deep cultural significance. From gods and goddesses to mythical creatures and symbols of daily life, these pieces represent various facets of traditional Hawaiian life and beliefs.
