Sunrise shells

Sunrise shells (サンライズシェル) — also known as Hawaiian Langford’s Pecten — are rare, scallop-shaped treasures found in Hawaiʻi (ニイハウ貝アクセサリー) in shades ranging from pink and yellow to orange and deep peach. Each shell is unique, often with natural stripes or spots inspired by sunrise itself.

These shells are hand-selected for beauty and quality in our gallery — perfect for making leis, earrings, or layered creations when paired with Momi (モミ貝) or Laiki (ライスシェル) shells. Whether pre-drilled or whole, each shell brings a warm glow and subtle texture to any design.
