Kilauea Plantation built this field-stone structure during World War II, replacing the original wood frame building on the site. The first store, established in the 1880's was located on the old highway where the Christ Church Parish Hall now stands. In 1898 the plantation moved the store from the highway to this site in town. Though the land and building were owned by the plantation, the store was managed independently by the Lung family. During the plantation era Kong Lung was a typical plantation general store with groceries, a butcher shop, dairy, tools, clothes, hardware, a gas station, mechanic shop, tires and the post office.
PHOTO PRINTS
Prints are on Hahnemuhle heavyweight (315 gsm) 100% archival cotton “Photo Rag Baryta” paper, using archival inks and archival spray coating. They have a 200-year life expectancy before any deterioration of the print will be observed when stored, handled, and displayed under archival conditions.
CANVAS PRINTS
What is often called “Gallery Wrap Canvas” is a fine art inkjet (Giclee) print on canvas, with printed edges to wrap around a wooden stretcher frame, like a painting. With canvas prints, your print image is still the same size, but given a "wrap effect" around the edges to account for the thickness of the stretcher. Canvas can be rolled and shipped with no effect to the print. Your local framing shop should be able to mount the canvas to stretchers at a fraction of the cost of traditional framing, making for an overall more economical way to get fine art on your wall. The canvas is printed to wrap around a 1-inch stretcher (1.5 inches on larger sizes). Specifications will be provided with your order. Feel free to contact us if you need guidance with your canvas order.
