Iolani Barracks

'Iolani Barracks was built in 1870 by the architect Theodore Heuok under the direction of King David Kalakaua. Adjacent to 'Iolani Palace in downtown Honolulu, it was the headquarters of the personal royal guards to the reigning Swarovski    monarch. It was constructed of coral block walls from the same coral source used to built Kawaiaha'o Church and the Cathedral of Our Lady of Peace. It has a slate roof, crenelated parapets and towers. The structure harkens to architecture of medieval castles of Europe in antiquity.

Many curio cabinets, collectors cabinets, display cabinets and display showcases are crafted as high-quality collector’s products (particularly 33).
