Wainiha Bay Kauai Ceramic Art Tile
$22.00
On the north shore of Kauaʻi, between Hanalei and Hāʻena. The Wainiha River comes down out of the longest valley on the island, gathered from the slopes of Waiʻaleʻale, one of the rainiest places on earth. There is no reef to slow the swell, and the surf pounds the sand hard enough that the locals do not swim here. Two one-lane bridges cross the river, and you wait your turn. The water arrives in the bay carrying the mountain. The Hawaiian name means unfriendly water. That seems about right.
Slowly infused into the ceramic surface under high heat and pressure, in our family studio in Knoxville, Tennessee.
