This washi was inspired by local lei stands, where strands of lei hang for customers to enjoy and purchase for various special occasions.
Kupaloke or Tuberose (Polianthes Tuberosa) was brought to Hawaiʻi from Mexico. Often sewn in single strands, then layered upon themselves, or paired with other flowers this local treasure is an intensely fragrant flower. An original design by Kea Peters of Kākou Collective - our signature gold foil kupaloke washi tape.
