This handcrafted four-strand Kipona style lei and matching earrings are a radiant expression of Niʻihau shell jewelry (ニイハウシェル ジュエリー). The design combines the glossy brilliance of Momi shells (モミシェル) with colorful Kahelelani shells (カヘレラニシェル), accented by the natural elegance of baroque Tahitian pearls (タヒチアンパール).
The Momi shells include:
-
Brown-dotted ʻŌnikiniki ʻĀhiehie
-
White Keʻokeʻo Maikaʻi
The Kahelelani shells shimmer in natural hues:
-
Deep red burgundy ʻUlaʻula
-
Green ʻŌmaʻomaʻo
-
Pink ʻĀkala Pua
-
White Keʻokeʻo
A baroque-shaped Tahitian pearl (approx. 8 mm++) highlights the lei and earrings, adding soft iridescence and refined contrast. Each shell is hand-selected for quality, color, and luster, then woven into a layered design that reflects the skill, tradition, and aloha of Hawaiian craftsmanship.
