One of the largest trees in the forest, koa wood was used in the old days for canoes, weapons, and other implements requiring hard wood. The close grain and straight trunk made koa the ideal choice of wood for the hard years of service in salt water that a canoe must tolerate. To the Hawaiian people, who relied on fish as a source of protein, the koa was a treasured tree. Koa has two types of leaves. Seedlings sprout stems with rows of rounded leaves, and as the sapling matures the typical sickle-shaped leaves evolve. Card blank on the inside so it is perfect for any occasion. ハワイ島の自然が描かれたとても美しい芸術的な木版画のグリーティングカード。厚手のリネン織りに印刷されています。 森の中で最も大きな木のひとつであるコアはハワイ固有植物です。ハワイでは古来よりカヌーやサーフボード、家具や食器などに用いられました。 サイズ：15.24cm×10.16cm Show more
