Expertly crafted on the island of Ni'ihau Hawaii, this Ni'ihau Shell Lei is truly a work of art.
Each of the five strands is strung in the Mauna Loa style, where each shell is nestled seamlessly within the next.
All shells are of the Laiki (rice shell) variety with a clean white color.
The ends of each strand are connected together by a Pōleholeho (decorative shell used to conceal string ends) of the Apu'upu'u (bumpy cowrie) variety.
This lei measures approximately 34 inches in length, creating a 17 inch 'drop length' when worn.
