In Polynesian mythology, tikis represent a deep connection to the spiritual realm. Historically they were placed at sacred temples, and in and around homes, to remind Hawaiians of their core values: respect for family, appreciation of nature, and belief in the power of knowledge.
Keoni's handcrafted tiki pendant represents Ku Kealoha: Protector of The Love. Traditionally known as War God, Ku is actually a peaceful spirit—except to those who mean to bring harm to others. The figure-8 mouth represents infinity, and the powerful connection between the past and present.

This piece is of course beautiful but the meaning behind it really means a lot to me. Very special piece of jewelry for sure.

I received the tiki pendant a couple days ago. I was blown away by the quality and workmanship of this piece. The personal service and attention given to me throughout this transaction was outstanding. I am looking forward to future purchases. I am now trying to figure out how to add one of Keoniās wood Tiki carvings to my personal collection. Great people to work with.

We met Keoni and Heather at the Hanalei Farmers Market and immediately found a connection to both them and their art. The details of this piece are remarkable and it really looks like the wooden tikis this master carver normally creates. As mentioned in other reviews, it is a very substantial pendant, but still sufficiently understated for both genders to regularly wear it. I have worn it every day since we bought my necklace and am thrilled with this purchase!

It's so difficult to find words, which can describe the real beauty of the pendant and the very good job, that Keoni is able to do... We are really happy about the Tiki... Fantastic, beautiful, high quality and handmade jewel... Moreover, Keoni and Heather are so nice and friendly, that become a pleasure to write and deal with them. We are from Italy and we recommend Kauai Carver Store to everyone, who is looking for high quality!!

This is a high quality piece. It is a perfect size and is solid sterling about 56 grams! I bought it with the 4 mm black leather cord and they look great together. Keoni & Heather are very friendly and informative and were great to work with. I will recommend them highly to anyone looking on the site.
This is best jewelry purchase I have made and will be wearing this necklace everyday.

The Tiki Pendant is awesome! The picture does not do complete justice to the detail and craftsmanship. I'm looking forward to wearing this and showing it off. This is the second item I received from Keoni, the first being a fish hook. I have not been disappointed in either item. Thanks for your great service and delivering such a beautiful product.

This pendant is a powerful piece of art - I don't usually wear necklaces or any type of jewelry, but I fell in love pretty fast when I saw Keoni wearing it at the farmer's market (to be clear - I fell in love with the pendant, not Keoni, though he struck me as most lovable); one month later my own version showed up in Vancouver, where I live, and I've been wearing it ever since.

I bought this pendant for my wife a few months back and she loves it. She feels its more a talisman for protection and bringing her abundance. On many occasion the mana (magical power) has proved very powerful for her.

This tiki is very special, not only because it is so beautifully carved, but also because of the meaning and passion Keoni builds into it. Keoni is not only a very talented artist and carver, but he is also a superior waterman, and a lover of the earth, ocean and all of its creatures. And, imho , each one of his pieces possess both his talent and his spirit. Keoni and Heather are a wonderful team that create products that combine beauty, cultural respect and genuine love.

The Tiki pendant arrived today. Technology is good, but the web site still does not capture how amazing this looks in person. My wife was more than glad to wait the time for it. We will be looking for more from you. Aloha and Mahalo.

What a find at the Hanalei Farmers market! Heather and Keoni's booth was filled with gorgeous works but the sterling Tiki pendant Keoni the artist was wearing caught my eye. My husband's birthday is around the corner and it will be a wonderful surprise and connection to Kauai. They got it to me early so I could take it back with me and the workmanship is fantastic. So special to own such a unique piece of art and be able to wear it as well!
