Collection: Koa Wood Watches

In the Hawaiian language, Koa means 'warrior.' Koa wood holds deep meaning and history for the Hawaiian people. Koa trees are the largest native species in Hawai'i, reaching heights of up to 115 feet, with the largest populations found on the Big Island, Maui, Oahu, and Kauai. Koa has been used for centuries to construct canoes, weapons, surfboards, and ukuleles. Historically known as the wood of royalty, Koa is now considered one of the most valuable woods in the world.

At Komo Koa Jewelry, we ensure that all our materials are sustainably sourced. We are committed to respect and love for the planet, which is why we direct a portion of each sale to environmental initiatives that protect our precious forests and oceans. As members of 1% For the Planet, we are proud to preserve the beauty of natural landscapes for generations to come. When you purchase one of our Koa wood watches, you are helping to make a difference for vulnerable Hawaiian ecosystems.
