Shell & Shark Tooth Necklace In Your Choice of Silver or Gold

A tiny shark tooth casted charm suspended from Kauai Ni’ihau shells (Kahelelani shells), and cute little accent beads on a 17” chain of your choice.

Shells have been hand picked by myself off the beautiful beaches of Kauai. Each shell has been sorted by color, size, & quality, cleaned, then drilled for stringing. Most shells used in this necklace are pink colored and the style of drilling the tiny shell has created a herringbone pattern. The herringbone pattern brings out any skin tone and this combo is a one in a kind design created by, yours truly :)

I have paired my Kauai hand picked Ni’ihau shells & paired it with the cutest shark tooth charm for the endless summer collection!!!!! ~ Handmade on Kauai with love ~

NOTE: The shell used are natural shells handpicked from the beaches of Kauai and have not been altered. Any imperfections in the shell are just part of its unique journey. Shell size: Approx. between 1-3mm each. Their adult size is 3mm. One of the smallest & therefore most difficult shells to sew in the Hawaiian Islands.

Me for more pictures & questions so that you understand the size, importance and value of these rare shells that are only found in 4 of the Hawaiian islands in the world.

The true name of this precious gem of the ocean is the Kahelelani shell, named after an ancient chief of Niihau.
Kahelelani. translated is “pathway to heaven”. Although these shells are found on four of the Hawaiian Islands: Niihau, Kauai, Molokai and Lanai, it was the artisans from Niihau who first introduced these shells to the world.
The Kahelelani shell is the most sought after of the rare Niihau and Kauaian shells. It is the smallest and therefore the most difficult to collect and sew. Kahelelani shell leis have a rich history dating back hundreds of years.
