a sculpture by
Herb Kawainui Kane
Executed in cast stone with an antiqued olive and black finish.
"Pele, Goddess of Hawaii's Volcanoes" by the artist.

$545.

The olivine stone (or peridot) is crystalline. Found only on Pele's island, it is the source of the island's rare green sand beach. The olive antiquing on the Pele sculpture has been perfectly matched to this stone, which is known as "Pele's stone" and is often used in healing ceremonies by Hawaiian kahunas. The sculpture is shown hanging against a natural lava wall. Approximately 17 by 22 inches.
