Hawaiian Jewelry– Let’s Talk Behind The Scenes!

The history of the Hawaiian Jewelry dates back to the Hawaiian Monarchy era. In 1887, England’s Queen Victoria, during the celebration of her Golden Jubilee, presented an honorary gift to the then Hawaii’s Princess Lili’ uoklani (who was perhaps the last Hawaiian Queen) in the form of a solid gold bracelet with the princess’s name engraved on it in Old English lettering and enameled in black.


It is since then the Royal Hawaiian family got so much impressed with the gift that they started making their own Hawaiian Jewelry with designs inspired by the Hawaiian nature, culture and traditions with a revolutionary hand-crafted technique. Thus, it is also called the Hawaiian Heirloom Jewelry.

Prior to this, the black enameled jewelry actually came into the limelight when Queen Victoria was in the mourning period due to the sad demise of her husband, Prince Albert, in 1862 which followed the customary adoption of the black mourning attires and black featured jewelries. Gradually these black accented jewelries were not only limited to England but also gained a huge fame and demand all over the world. And, with this, Hawaiian Jewelry started enjoying the limelight across the globe.

The Hawaiian Jewelry including Hawaiian bracelets, Hawaiian necklaces, etc. have evolved over a period of time with engravings inspired by the Old English, Plumeria designs, Maile Leaves and other designs bearing the Hawaiian motifs behind it. These engravings render the Hawaiian Jewelry scratch-proof.

This Hawaiian Jewelry casts down the surreal and exquisite beauty of the Hawaii Islands through their engravings, designs, and colors. Besides gold, Hawaiian bracelets and Hawaiian necklaces are crafted out of other materials as well such as diamond, sterling silver, wood, shells, topaz, opal, coral, jade, pearls, etc. Most of them depict the beauty of the exotic beach waters of the Hawaiian Islands. Other variants of the Hawaiian Jewelry include bangles, earrings, pendants, rings and wave jewelry.

Well, it is the unparalleled Hawaiian motifs which take the creativity of these Hawaiian bracelets and Hawaiian Jewelry to another level. These motifs and concepts include various sea creatures such as Sea Turtles, fishes, dolphins, mermaids, canoe. Others include the tropical floral motifs such as orchids, hibiscus, pikake; tropical trees and their leaves; various musical instruments such as ukulele; tropical fruits;

volcanoes; Shell Jewelry in which the shells themselves are used in making; many inspired from the rich traditions and culture of Hawaii are mostly influenced from petroglyphs and so on.
Every single piece of Hawaiian Jewelry is hand-crafted with love and is unique in its own way, signifying the Hawaiian concept, with its engravings facing the wearer or the observer thus, making it truly exceptional.

Coming onto the prices, well, that actually depends on the karat, thickness or width of the gold as well as quantity of the other items used in the making of the Hawaiian Jewelry. The intricate designs also play an important role in being one of the deciding factors of their prices.

So, beauty does not always lie in the eyes of the beholder. Beauty does lie in the Hawaiian Jewelry which is worth admiring and also worth investing.
