This authentic Niʻihau shell jewelry (ニイハウシェルジュエリー) piece is a handmade Kahelelani poepoe style necklace featuring shells collected from Kauaʻi. The design highlights a warm range of natural colors — soft beige, creamy tones, and deep burgundy accents — all strung in the traditional poepoe style. Each Kahelelani shell is carefully chosen for its luster and beauty, creating a necklace that embodies true Hawaiian shell artistry.
Measuring 17 1/2 inches in total length, the necklace includes a 1 1/2 inch shell section strung in poepoe formation. Findings are crafted from 14K gold-filled materials, and the chain is finished in a classic round style for durability and elegance.
This necklace is a timeless expression of Hawaiian heritage, blending authentic Kauaʻi shells with traditional craftsmanship. Perfect for collectors, admirers of Hawaiian handmade jewelry, or anyone looking for a meaningful heirloom treasure.
