Our handcrafted jewellery is made from the Black Pearl oyster shell (Pinctada Margaritifera), farmed in the Cook Islands on the beautiful northern group island of Manihiki.

The shells are farmed only in a very small number of island nations thus making it a rare unique product. Once the pearl have been removed from the oyster shell, we then carefully pick the shells that are suitable for carvings and these are according to their size, thickness and colour.

It is a very labour intensive process. A total of 13 stages goes into transforming each piece from the raw shell to the beautiful finished product that you can now wear with pride.

Every piece will be unique because each pattern choice and layout will all be different.

We are now offering for the first time Customisation of pendants, whole shells, key rings and earrings which makes it even more meaningful to the wearer.
