Our Story

From One Paradise
to Another

Thirty years of connecting Indonesian craftsmanship with the Hawaiian islands.

Claudio first set up shop in Haleiwa in 1994, selling handcrafted Balinese furniture, homewares, and clothing out of a small storefront on the North Shore. Over 25 years of retail across O'ahu, he built deep relationships with Bali's workshops — the wood carvers, the weavers, the stone workers — and became one of Hawaii's most experienced importers of Indonesian-made goods.

Today, Balimoon Hawaii supplies furniture, home décor, fashion, jewelry, and architectural materials — carved doors, teak panels, natural stone — to retail customers, wholesale buyers, private label brands, and homebuilders. Everything passes through the warehouse, and Claudio still personally oversees what comes in and what goes out. No middlemen. No catalogs. Just thirty years of knowing what's real and what's not.

The Source

It Starts in Indonesia

Deep in the workshops and villages of Bali, Java, and beyond — where generations of artisans have shaped wood, stone, and natural fiber into art. Claudio works directly with these craftsmen, sourcing raw materials and commissioning custom designs at the source.

The Craft

Shaped by Hand

Every piece is made by hand — carved, woven, sanded, and finished by artisans whose families have been doing this work for generations. No factory lines. No shortcuts. Just real craft passed down through time.

The Voyage

Across the Pacific

Containers packed floor to ceiling make the journey from Indonesian ports to Honolulu. Each shipment is personally curated — every crate, every piece selected and accounted for before it leaves the dock.

The Arrival

Unloaded on O'ahu

When a container hits the island, the crew gets to work. Every piece is unpacked, inspected, and sorted by hand. No middlemen, no distribution centers — straight from the dock to the warehouse.
