Lei are the very expression of traditional Hawaiian culture and were once an essential part of community and family life. Following in the footsteps of Samuel Kamakau, Abraham Fornander, and others, the authors have collected here a wealth of written and oral information to reveal the significance of making and wearing lei and their role in Hawaiian ritual and dance. This volume covers eighty-five flowers and plants (and another dozen color variations) used in traditional lei construction. They are arranged according to their Hawaiian names and accompanied by botanical information and descriptions gleaned from legends and chants that illustrate the cultural uses and special meanings of lei prior to Western contact. Many are introduced by poems written especially for this work by master kumu hula, linguist, and ethnologist Pualani Kanakaole Kanahele. The authors present the lei art form in not only words, but also pictures. Lavish color photographs by Jean Coté showcase each plant and lei (shown by itself or worn), as well as places throughout the Islands associated with specific flowers and plants. An appendix includes a complete list of lei plants, basic instructions for their propagation, and other sources for material.

The art of featherworking has a long, cultural history in Hawaii. Rooted in the tradition of their Polynesian ancestors, the early Hawaiian perfected and transformed the art as they created feathered cloaks, capes, helmets, images, and standards for the alii. Many of the items made were considered sacredfrom both the process of their creation to their uses. Despite the influx of Western ideas, and the introduction of Christianity which, for a time, halted the practice of many traditional customs, this artform has survived and flourishes todaythanks in part to those in the community who continue their ancestors' legacy. This new edition of Feather Lei as an Art is meant to perpetuate the art of featherworking and bring it to a wide audience. It provides step-by-step instructions o how to make both traditional (round) and contemporary (flat) feather lei. Vibrant, color photographs complement instructions and provide a visual testament to the beauty of featherworking. Designed and written with the beginner in mind, the aspiring featherworker is guided not only through the steps of how to make the lei, but through the soul-satisfying journey which leads to its completion. Included is an overall look at the history of this ancient art; an explanation of the difference between traditional and contemporary lei; interpretations of the traditional colors used and color combinations; a detailed supply list; how to identify, prepare and work with feathers; how to store feather lei; and examples of what types of featherwork is being explore today.
