These handcrafted Hawaiian heleconia style shell earrings feature a rich and balanced combination of island shells with a flowing, layered design. The Poheho shells from Kauaʻi carry deep brown tones with natural variations, creating a smooth and polished look with warmth and depth.
Paired throughout the design are blue Momi shells from Niʻihau in uliuli, adding a cool and calming contrast that brings a fresh and balanced feel to the piece. The combination of deep brown and soft blue creates a natural harmony, blending warmth and cool tones in a way that feels both grounded and refreshing. This piece is lightweight yet full of detail, with a cascading heleconia style that feels graceful, bold, and easy to wear.

Striking!
These Poheho and Blue Momi earrings are striking! Only 3 pairs were available abd two of them sold immediately while I was pondering which to order. The decision was made for me :) and so glad I purchased these. They are unique. I haven’t seen this color composition before in Ni’ihau jewelry. They are a perfect complement to some local made tops I love. I look forward to seeing what new designs Janjira has in store and it’s so good to know if the piece I am interested in sells out, Janjira may be able to reproduce it as a custom order I LOVE these earrings!! Mahalo, Janjira!
