Pieczęć stanowa Hawajów
Motto: Ua Mau ke Ea o ka ʻĀina i ka Pono znaczy w języku hawajskim Życie ziemi jest uwieczniane w prawości. Ustanowił je urzędnik pierwszego królestwa Kamehameha III, który w 1843 roku proklamował monarchię.
Na pieczęci widzimy dwie postaci: Z prawej (heraldycznie) strony Kamehameha Wielkiego, który zjednoczył Wyspy Hawajskie w jedno państwo. Po przeciwnej stronie znajduje się Bogini Wolności trzymająca flagę Hawajów.
Oboje trzymają tarczę herbową królestwa. Ponad nią wschodzące słońce z rokiem 1959 - datą przystąpienia do USA. Poniżej tarczy, umieszczono feniksa z wieńcem bananów i paproci.
Pierwsze i czwarte pole herbu przedstawia pasy reprezentujące osiem największych wysp. Każde z pól ma ich po cztery.
Drugie i trzecie pole przedstawia puloʻuloʻu (lokalny symbol władzy). W samym centrum umieszczono gwiazdę pięćdziesiątego z kolei stanu.
