Charlot House Interiors & Kahala Neighborhood








A mug on the mug. Charlot woodcut.



























This is Jean Charlot's coffin sitting under the open stair. It was recently delivered to the house. His body is not inside and we don't know why it was not used. It's made of beautiful wood and, fortunately, doesn't look too coffin-like.


















Curved plaster wall at the entry








Moody Chimenea










Living Room mural by Jean Charlot














Living Room opens to side patio.













Living Room opens to back patio.




















Entry hall














This is the apartment building where we might have been able to get a one-bedroom apartment, if this house hadn't been made available. (Thank you Clark!)























Kahala Mall where there is a bust of Jack Lord, who played Steve McGarret on the version of Hawaii Five-0 that ran 1968 - 1980. He lived in the Kahala area and the local people are very proud of him. His bust has recently been honored with leis and other indications of homage. He died in the late 1990s.
