The Loulu Palm is one of the only species of palms that is native to Hawaii. The majority of the palm trees that you see around our islands were either migrated to the islands or were brought by other countries. One of the most famous palm trees is the Coconut Palm Tree which came to Hawaii by the Polynesians. Throughout the years Hawaiians have used the palm trees for housing, clothing, baskets, hats, and so much more.

The Koa tree produces wood that is regarded as one of the most elegant and exotic of Hawaii's native woods and possesses ancient significance, giving the ring a special meaning. Recognized as one of the highest quality textured woods in the world, the use of Koa wood creates a ring that is light weight, comfortable, and brilliantly unique.

What is Koa?
In the Hawaiian language Koa means brave, bold, fearless and warrior.
Koa or Acacia Koa is a large tree, typically attaining a height of 15-25m (49-82ft) and a spread of 6-12m (20-39ft). In deep volcanic ash, a koa tree can reach a height of 30m (98ft), a circumference of 6m (20ft), and a spread of 38m (125ft). It is one of the fastest-growing Hawaiian trees, capable of reaching 6-9m (20-30ft) in five years on a good site.
