Coconut Vintage Cut Aloha Shirt by David Shepard
THE STORY BEHIND THE HAND-DRAWN DESIGN
The coconut, or Niu, carries a Hawaiian proverb: "Ka wai lewa i ka makani," meaning "The water which sways in the breeze." Water symbolizes wealth and blessings from the heavens. This design portrays the life cycle and ancestry of the coconut palm and its fruit. Like nested Russian dolls, we carry the legacy of our ancestors and the potential for future generations within us. The coconut similarly holds nourishment for both people and its embryo, enduring long ocean journeys and supporting Pacific cultures in their voyages and prosperity. Embrace this timeless symbol of life and resilience.
