Our Story

Our Story begins with a childhood fascination with the ocean. Growing up in Florida, I spent countless afternoons at my grandmother’s house, mesmerized by her shell collection. I loved collecting my own treasures from the nearby beaches to bring home to my grandmother. When I was 19, I came to Kauai, and it was here that my passion truly blossomed. My cousin, who grew up on the island, introduced me to the Kahelelani shell necklace, a breathtaking masterpiece of tiny, intricately woven shells. The delicate details of each tiny shell, arranged with such care, sparked my love for jewelry making.

Today I'm blessed to be able to share my love for shelling with my boyfriend, Captain Ryan. Together we go shelling both on land and at sea in search for the perfect shell treasures. His support and love are at the heart of every piece I create, and together, we are ecstatic to share these ocean treasures with you.
