Kahelelani Single-Strand Necklace

$420.00

A quiet strand of kahelelani gathered between Hāʻena and Hanalei. Each shell is hand-sorted for size and color, pierced with patience, and strung in patterns rooted in Hawaiian lei tradition. Winter swells often bring the finest pinks — the smallest shells, the slowest work.

Care

Shellwork prefers a gentle life: rinse in fresh water after ocean swims, pat dry, store away from perfumes and lotions. Each strand is slow-made — treat it with the same patience it was given.
