Nearly 7 dozen chunky sea glass nuggets in all shades of ocean are lovingly (and painstakingly) arranged from small to large. Beachy white, cobalt blue, deep teal, and sea foam green nuggets and are each carefuly drilled through the center and strung back to back creating this unique "candy necklace" look. Rope cord is made from flat waxed polyester thread in an almond shade of medium brown, a warm compliment to the cool sea glass tones.
The Lō'ihi Puka Lei is named after the active seamount that is currently forming Hawaii's next island. Lō'ihi translates to "long" and is a perfect name for this longline lei. This statement piece measures 33 inches end to end and is considered an opera length lei
The functional toggle closure is made with two pieces of sea glass. One piece slides to cinch the toggle loop and the other piece creates the toggle. You will find that the lei will slip easily over your head without having to use the toggle.
This Lei is truly one of a kind and made especially for the ultimate sea glass lover.
