Coco Joe’s Hawaii Wall Hanging

Coco Joe’s Wall Hanging — a classic example of mid-century Hawaiian souvenir art made from volcanic resin. This sculptural wall plaque features two hula dancers carved in high relief, captured mid-motion in traditional skirts. The dark stone-like material is actually a composite lava resin developed by Coco Joe’s, a brand founded in Hawaii in the 1950s by Joe K. Sing. The company produced a wide array of figurines, plaques, and accessories themed around Hawaiian culture .

Coco Joe’s items were extremely popular with postwar tourists visiting Hawaii and have since become collectible for their regional character and nostalgic flair. Production ceased in the late 20th century, increasing the desirability of surviving pieces. This wall hanging captures a romanticized midcentury vision of Hawaii — one that blends kitsch with craft and cultural representation.

Perfect for tiki collectors, Hawaiian memorabilia enthusiasts, or midcentury interiors
