Description

This authentic Niʻihau shell jewelry (ニイハウシェルジュエリー) set features a 21-inch lei with matching 2 3/4-inch earrings, both handcrafted in the traditional Pikake style (ピカケスタイル). The Pikake style, inspired by the jasmine flower, is known for its soft, rounded flow — shells overlapping in a way that resembles delicate flower buds.

The shells are genuine Momi Lenalena (モミシェル・レナレナ), treasured for their natural golden-yellow tones. Many carry the bold black-lipped edge (Waha ʻEleʻele), adding beautiful contrast and depth. Each shell has been carefully chosen and strung with patience and aloha, making this lei and earring set a unique reflection of Hawaiian tradition.

This set of Niʻihau shell jewelry is a perfect gift for yourself or for someone you love.
