This one-of-a-kind lei is handcrafted in a four-strand combination of crown flower and pikake styles, blending two traditional Niʻihau weaving techniques into one breathtaking piece. The design showcases high-luster Momi shells (モミシェル) in a stunning array of rare natural colors, carefully chosen to highlight both depth and harmony.
Shells include:
-
ʻŌnikiniki ʻEleʻele (black-spotted Momi)
-
ʻŌnikiniki ʻĀhiehie (brown-spotted Momi)
-
Multiple shades of Lenalena (yellow Momi)
-
Soft ʻUliʻuli (blue Momi / ブルーモミシェル)
-
Classic Keʻokeʻo (white Momi)
Each shell is hand-selected for brilliance and woven with care to reflect the flowing elegance of both the crown flower and pikake forms. This lei is not only a piece of jewelry but a true representation of Niʻihau shell artistry (ニイハウシェル ジュエリー) — a treasure to be cherished for generations.
