Description

NI'IHAU SHELL LEI 2 STRAND PIKAKE MOMI KE'OKE'O ONIKINIKI POLEHOLE APU'UPU'U 51" (SC2017-01)

Expertly crafted on the island of Ni'ihau Hawai'i, this lei is truly a work of art.

Strung in the Pikake style, each layer of shells interlaces seamlessly with the next.
All shells are of the Momi (Dove shell) variety with Ke'oke'o (white/off-white) and Onikiniki (white with golden spots) colorations. The strands are connected by a 17mmX25mm Pōleholeho (decorative shell which ties the ends of each strand together) of the Apu'upu'u (bumpy cowrie) variety that has been creatively filled with crushed green sea glass.
This lei's longest strand measures approximately 51 inches (creating a 25.5 inch 'drop length' when worn) while the shortest is about 48 inches.
