Southern Inspiration
The unique artwork for our products is inspired from those beautiful Southern Palmetto trees that have withstood hurricane force winds for decades and even British cannonballs from more than a lifetime ago. The palmetto represents strength with its tightly woven fibers, while at the same time serving as an icon of the southern coastal plain.
Meet the Artist
Calhoun Harrelson, known as Cal, paints palmettos, thus, “calmettos”. A native South Carolinian, Cal has experienced all things Coastal South Carolina from hunting and hiking, to fishing, boating, planting southern pines, seining for shrimp, gathering crabs and oysters for a roast and simply enjoying a love of the land. Cal’s roots run deep in South Carolina as his Great Uncle John C. Calhoun was South Carolina’s greatest Statesman.
