RINGS AND BANGLES- MAUI MUST HAVES
These Rings And Bangles Are Maui’s Must-Have Souvenirs
If you’re looking for a gorgeous piece of jewelry that represents Hawaii, you’ve come to the right place. Nothing says “Maui” like rings and bangles made with natural materials hand-sourced from the sea...pearls and pukas being our personal favorite.
At Puka Perri—a luxe jewelry line created by a local Maui designer— Perri Ricci — natural puka shells, Tahitian pearls, and keshi pearls are used to create beautiful statement pieces that are intended to connect wearers to the energy and healing power of the ocean.
Wave Bangle Sets with Petit Pukas or Tahitian Pearls
The Petit Puka Bangle Set features three interconnected bracelets, each hand-forged and accented with petit puka shells. The wave shape of the bangles creates an organic look that makes a statement on its own or can layer up with the classic Plain Wave Bangle Sets. Depending on your preference, you can take home this luxe souvenir in either silver, gold-filled, or rose-gold filled.
Puka shells are natural treasures that come from the ocean. They also happen to be a Hawaiian jewelry classic. The word puka means hole in the Hawaiian language referring to the small naturally-formed hole often found on these shells. This feature along with their smooth beautiful nature have always made pukas a popular choice for bracelets and necklaces.
Prefer pearls over pukas? The Wave Bangle Set with Tahitian Pearls will make your wrist stack dreams come true. Three intertwined silver or gold wave bangles accented with a single beautiful round Tahitian pearl and two organic shaped tahitian keshi pearls. The combo of the these pearls creates our signature wabi-sabi balance of raw nature with refined lines.
Single Petit Puka Bangle
Looking for something more low-key than a full bangle set? The Single Petit Puka bangle subtly demands attention. Whether you wear it alone or add it to your bracelet stack (gold-filled, rose gold-filled, and silver options make this a versatile choice), it’s an authentic Maui souvenir that works as an everyday staple and also a great gift to bring home a piece of Hawaii.
Keshi Pearl Ring
One of the coolest things about Tahitian Keshi pearls is that they are the closest thing to a natural pearl. During the pearl culturing process something naturally gets into and irritates the oyster creating an organic shaped pearl of high luster. You can have Tahitian, South Sea, and freshwater keshis and they come in a variety or sizes, shape, and quality. Sometimes I find flat and wide keshis that are ideal for making rings. The coolest part- no two are alike!
A sweet simple reminder of your trip to Maui, our Keshi Pearl ring combines an organic pearl with a thin gold-filled or silver band. Each is totally unique, making this ring a souvenir exclusive to you.
