history

history

Kukui was first introduced by early Polynesian settlers and soon became one of the most common trees in the Hawaiian forest. Hawaiians didn’t only use the nuts for leis. They also used it for oils, food, and also made use of the leaves as well.

Fallen dried mature nuts of the kukui tree are sanded down and polished. Holes are made at the ends to remove nut meat and string the nuts together. The smoothened nuts are strung together with a black ribbon.

    My husband kept his and he hangs it on the mirror in his car!

    The guys in our family got kukui leis. Our sons wore their leis back home.

  3. Chelsie –

    I set up a surprise greeting for my wife and daughters. I wasn’t going to get a lei for myself because I didn’t want to wear flowers. I didn’t know this was an option, so it worked out for the better — I was able to get greeted with my family without wearing flower leis.

    M A H A L O !

  5. Chelsie –

    The seeds are really nice. It’s smooth and shiny. Good for men.

  6. Chelsie –

    I liked the idea of a souvenir lei. I chose the lei for my son and the matching bracelet for my daughter in addition to our orchid leis. I still wanted fresh leis for our greeting, so these were just for souvenirs.

    We get to keep a lasting memory from our first trip to Hawaii!
