Honomanu Bay Maui Ceramic Art Tile
$22.00
A dark cove at the base of one of the largest valleys on Haleakalā's windward flank. Honomanu Stream cuts down through the rainforest and meets the Pacific at a beach of black sand and rolling cobble. The Hana Highway switchbacks down to a one-lane bridge across the stream and climbs out again; most cars pull off at the overlook above to look down. The road to the beach itself is narrow, often rough, mostly used by surfers and families who live along the coast. The boulders shift with each swell. The basalt below is over a million years old, the oldest exposed on East Maui.
Slowly infused into the ceramic surface under high heat and pressure, in our family studio in Knoxville, Tennessee.
