Why Kuwohi
Kuwohi — formerly Clingmans Dome, and renamed in 2024 to restore its original Cherokee name — is the highest peak in the Great Smoky Mountains, the highest point in Tennessee, and the highest point along the entire Appalachian Trail. On a clear day the observation tower at its summit offers views reaching more than 100 miles. For many families in the region, a trip up Kuwohi is a rite of passage.
Carved With the Same Appalachian Craft
Every piece starts with real elevation data turned into an accurate 3D model, then CNC-carved and hand-finished in black walnut, cherry, white oak, or ash — sourced locally in these same mountains where possible. Kuwohi’s rounded, spruce-fir-covered summit carves in with soft, rolling detail against rich walnut grain.
