This listing features a mixed supply of genuine Momi and Laiki shells from Niʻihau, shown exactly as photographed. The shells are small in size and are well suited for beginners learning Hawaiian shell jewelry making, especially for practicing traditional styles such as Pikake and Kipona.
The shells display natural color variation throughout the mix. Many shells appear soft off-white, while others show warm cream tones with light caramel or beige accents. These differences are completely natural and give the shells an organic, balanced look when strung together.
This is a B-grade selection with ok luster. Some shells have a gentle natural shine, while others have slightly softer luster. All imperfect or unusable shells have been carefully sorted out, leaving a good-quality, workable supply that is ideal for practice, learning spacing and balance, and building confidence before working with higher-grade shells.
