Kauai carver of original artifacts, Keoni

In Brent Cemper's research he discovers there was only one known stone carving image with such [a face] and in respect to keeping the former artist's work alive Brent pays homage to the unknown sculptor and reproduces his Atooi ancestor's original image.

Poi pounders original Kauai Atooi Designs by Brent Cemper

Aunty Jenny made these for my mother years ago :) I miss them both

Kauai was the only island in Hawaii to produce handles on their poi pounders because; only on Kauai both women and children were allowed to produce poi whereas on the other islands only the kane took that honor.
