Description
North Pacific, Hawaii, ca. early to mid-20th century CE. A sizeable and stunning platter handmade from the wood of the flowering Acacia Koa tree, a name that interestingly translates to "fearless warrior." Boasting a natural wood grain surface in swirling hues of golden caramel and rich espresso, the elegant dish presents a flat base and smooth walls that gently rise to a low, annular rim. Size: 17.875" in diameter x 1.5" H (45.4 cm x 3.8 cm)
