This one-of-a-kind Kipona Style Hawaiian Shell Necklace was carefully handcrafted using genuine Niʻihau and Kauaʻi shells. Because of the shell sizes used in this design, the necklace has a bold appearance while still maintaining an elegant look that is comfortable enough for everyday wear.
If you would like to see how this necklace was created, I invite you to visit the Behind the Scenes blog, where I share the shell sorting process, weaving techniques, and many of the challenges I encountered while bringing this one-of-a-kind creation to life.
