Everything from our studio is hand sculpted. From the metal cutting, bending, sculpting, welding- patinas and installation- our artist are involved. It’s a beautiful process!

The perfect artistic combination of fire + water. Functional sculptures.

From clay to legacy. This piece began as an idea… a quiet sketch, a reverent intention. Then, it came to life through clay — drawn, and shaped by hand by . Every curl, every detail, every expression was sculpted with purpose. To witness this work move from concept → clay → bronze - and to be present at the opening of Queen Liliʻuokalani Trust on Oʻahu was an unforgettable moment.

Queen Liliʻuokalani’s legacy reminds us of the power of resilience. She endured injustice, yet her spirit never surrendered. Today, her story calls us to protect what matters. This sculpture is our offering — a tribute built with deep respect, and with gratitude to stand in the presence of her legacy.
