This bracelet uses the very rare and valuable Kahelelani shells, Momi shells Kahelelani shells and granulate cowrie shells. Most of them wash up on the shores of Ni'ihau, but we do get some here on the North shore of Kauai. All of these shells have been hand picked by Me from the beaches of Kauai. They are unique in that they are the ONLY shell in the world that is actually insurable and a GEM! This a traditional pattern of weaving used by the natives of Ni'ihau. This bracelet looks truly stunning on and is an intricate work of art.
Length: 7.75' inches
It has been strung with 50lb' test braided nylon line so it is very strong and durable and can be worn with in fresh or salt water.
The granulate cowrie shell and the 14kt gold filled lobster claw clasp is very secure and will not come undone during activities.
Bracelet will arrive in a gift box, Mahalo.
About the Shells:
The Kahelelani Shells are only found in a small region of the Pacific. Most of them wash up on Niihau, the Forbidden Island, but we do get some on only a few beaches here on Kauai. They are a very special shell in that they are the ONLY shell in the world that is classified as a gem, and can be insured as one. At one time they were actually worth more per ounce than gold! This ancient art of using the shells to create adornments has been practiced by the Hawaiians since their arrival to the islands. At one time only the royalty, or Ali'i, were allowed to wear them.Today only a handful of people keep this tradition alive, making these already rare and sought after shells even more valuable.I am proud to keep such a historic art form from dying, and hope that you enjoy my work.Mahalo.
