Named after the spirit of Hawaii, Aloha dances the ancient Kahiko Hula. The beautiful movements of her hands and body tell stories about the wonders of nature, the creation of the world and the Menehune Ohana (family). Aloha’s traditional Uli’ulis (feather gourds) add sound and excitement to her dance.

Tutu (grandmother) is Aloha’s Kumu Hula (Hula Teacher). She taught her the powerful movements of the Kahiko Hula. Together, Tutu and Aloha crafted the Ulu’ulis out of wood, bright red and yellow feathers. Tutu blessed the Ulu’ulis with Hawaiian salt and special prayers. They are sacred now. They were created for Aloha and only she is allowed to touch them.

Tutu also hand crafted the traditional yellow hula skirt with a matching top, panties and green tassels. Tutu wove yellow feather leis for ‘Olena’s ankles. In Hawaii the Hulu (feather) represents spiritual strength, unity and love. It is believed to link to the divine.

Last Tutu put 2 beautiful red Plumeria flowers in ‘Olena’s hair.

All these precious things were Tutu’s gifts of Aloha (Love) to her Mo’opuna Wahine (granddaughter).

Aloha is a 10” tall cloth doll who was individually handcrafted on the Big Island of Hawaii with the greatest love and respect for all that is Hawaii. Her body is made out of doll skin and stuffed with high quality poly fill. The body is wired for flexibility. The eyes and mouth are intricately embroidered onto the face giving the doll a unique personality.

All accessories were individually handcrafted.

Aloha is not a dress up doll. All clothing and accessories are sewn and/or glued onto her.

Doll care: Gently brush the dolls and their clothing with a soft toothbrush to remove dust. Always brush the faces and bodies upwards towards the hair. You may gently finger comb her hair.

She is a collector’s item bringing you the spiritual power of Hawaii.
