Koa Tree

Koa

Koa trees are sacred in Hawaii. 

The remarkably beautiful shimmer and magical glow of Koa wood almost seems unreal.

Prior to the annexation of Hawaii by the United States, Hawaii royalty were the only people allowed to possess Koa wood.

Koa trees habitat is above 300 ft elevation on the mountains of Hawaii. Elevation range: 330–7,550 ft

Koa means brave or fearless in Hawaiian.

Now the Koa wood is used as vainer from expensive guitars because of how cool the wood is.
