A beautiful collection of 100 genuine Kahelelani shells from the island of Niʻihau, Hawaiʻi, in the delicate size 11. These tiny shells are a favorite for adding intricate detail and vibrant color to Hawaiian shell jewelry.
This set features a rich mix of natural Hawaiian shell colors:
-
ʻĀkala – from light blush to deep rosy pink
-
ʻŌmaʻomaʻo keʻokeʻo – green
-
ʻUlaʻula – rich red
-
Lenalena – warm golden tan
-
Kōhua keʻokeʻo – white with brown speckles
With their matte (mort) finish, these shells have a softer, natural beauty that blends perfectly with traditional Niʻihau lei-making styles.
They are ideal for Herringbone (Hili), Manu ʻā loa, Heliconia, or Kipona style. For a fuller, more dramatic look, combine four strands. If you’re new to working with shells, starting with size 12 or larger is easier — but once you’ve built some skill, these size 11 shells are a joy to create with.
