Pele's Message of Encouragement

In this most challenging of times Pele offers her strength and passion

to remind us that life’s fiery eruptions and emotional upheavals

often clear the path for positive transformations.

Pele, Hawaiian Volcano Goddess

Birthdate: Malaki 29, 2020 (03-29-20)

Aloha e Pele! (Greetings, Pele!)
The Menehunes clap their hands, jumping up and down with excitement as soon as Pele emerges from the sacred Ohia forest.
Pele always brings the most fascinating news about the flaming spirit of Hawaii’s Volcano Goddess hurling fiery ribbons of lava down the mountain slopes, giving birth to new rock formations and land.

Pele carries a Bamboo Pahu (staff) with a flame of Kilauea Volcano surrounded by sacred Ti leaves. The flame embodies the light of spirit, knowledge and life.

Gifted with a passionate spirit, Menehune girl Pele was named after Hawaii’s Fire Goddess.
Pele’s Tutu (grandmother) wove her Mana (spiritual energy) and Aloha (love) into Pele's yellow Haku (head lei), wrist and ankle leis. Tutu also sewed Pele’s erupting volcano dress.

Pele’s abundant black and red streaked hair cascades down her back like the lava flow on the mountain slope.

Pele 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. All accessories are individually hand crafted.

Pele is not a dress up doll. All clothing and accessories are sewn and/or glued onto her.
Except for her Pahu which can be removed.

Doll care: Gently brush the dolls and their clothing with a soft dry toothbrush to remove dust. Always brush the faces and bodies upwards towards the hair.

Pele is an original design and comes with a booklet and a certificate of authenticity.

Pele is a one of a kind Hawaiian Art Doll. Every bit of her has been lovingly handcrafted to create a new friend who will last a lifetime.
