This set includes 635 genuine Kahelelani shells collected from Niʻihau, perfect for jewelry makers and collectors who love working with larger shells. These shells are size 13 and above, offering more volume and presence for your creations. For reference, the smaller Kahelelani shells shown on the coin are size 10, included only as a comparison to show scale.
The shells display a beautiful mix of natural colors, from soft pinks and tans to deeper spotted tones. Some shells may even carry a slight green tint, adding rare character and uniqueness to the set. You will notice that some shells show a high, glossy luster, while others appear a bit more matte. This variation is not a matter of quality, but simply reflects the different sands and environments on the beaches where the shells formed.
As a special addition, this set will come with instructions on how to create poepoe style shell earrings, making it a wonderful choice for beginners wanting to try Hawaiian shell jewelry (ハワイアンジュエリー) as well as experienced artists. Whether you dream of creating Niʻihau shell jewelry (ニイハウシェル) or delicate shell earrings (貝殻ピアス), this loose shell supply gives you an authentic start.
