Hawaiian heirloom jewelry

HAWAIIAN HEIRLOOM JEWELRY

Hawaiian jewelry has long been passed down as "a talisman that leads its wearer to happiness and protects them from misfortune."
Its formal name is "Hawaiian Heirloom Jewelry."

Also known as a "treasure passed down through generations" or "family heirloom,"
it is handed down from grandmother to mother, and from mother to daughter,
and continues to be deeply and enduringly loved in Hawaii to this day
as a way to express love for family, partners, and other cherished people.

HISTORY

The roots of Hawaiian jewelry are said to trace back to "sentimental jewelry,"
which became popular in England in the late 17th century as a way to express
love and memories of cherished family and friends.
Queen Lili'uokalani, the last queen of the Hawaiian Kingdom, had close ties with the British royal family,
and in the 19th century, mourning the death of Britain's Prince Albert,
she is said to have had a gold bangle made in his memory.
This bangle, which Lili'uokalani is said to have worn throughout her life,
reportedly bears the inscription "HO'OMANAO'MAU" (eternal remembrance).

This became a Hawaiian tradition,
and is regarded as the birth of the Hawaiian jewelry so deeply loved today.

Message and meaning in Hawaiian jewelry

MESSAGE

Hawaiian jewelry entrusts cherished words and legends to its motifs,
worn on the body along with the feelings behind them.

Hawaiian jewelry is often engraved with
plants, sea turtles, and other natural motifs.
This is because in Hawaii, surrounded by nature,
it is believed that the spirits of the gods dwell in all things,
and rings engraved with natural motifs carry the wish that
"may the two of you, who are about to become family
and walk toward the future together,
be watched over and protected."

And so, it also serves as a talisman that fulfills people's wishes.
