This one-of-a-kind lei is a breathtaking fusion of authentic Niʻihau shell craftsmanship and the luxury of Tahitian pearls (タヒチアンパール). Handcrafted with precision and aloha, the necklace features a flowing arrangement of Momi and Kahelelani shells, accented by 20 lustrous Tahitian pearls — each over 8 mm in size, with deep luster and a smooth finish.
The Momi shells (モミシェル) are an extraordinary mix of rare natural tones:
-
ʻŌnikiniki ʻEleʻele – black-spotted
-
Kahakaha ʻĀhiehie – golden-banded
-
Lenalena – yellow
-
ʻUliʻuli – soft blue
-
Keʻokeʻo Maikaʻi – pearl white
-
ʻŌnikiniki ʻĀhiehie – brown-spotted
-
Rare Purple Momi – Kauaʻi origin
Accented with Kahelelani shells (カヘレラニシェル) in shades of red, black, burgundy, pink, soft pink, green, Kamoa yellow, and chocolate brown, the lei becomes a vivid reflection of Hawaiʻi’s shoreline.
Finished with a handmade checkered cowrie clasp, this necklace embodies both the depth of Hawaiian heritage and the refinement of South Pacific pearls. Whether worn for ceremony or displayed as an heirloom, it is a true symbol of artistry, tradition, and luxury.
