(It’s possible I’m the only one of those 70s ‘Hawaii Movers & Shakers’ still alive!) However, in 1976 the Philippines flooded the market with thousands of cheap, so called, puka shell necklaces. Though some of the necklaces were made of puka shells harvested from islands in the Philippines, most were unauthentic ’manufactured’ necklaces made by collecting thousands living cone shell mollusks; then killing the animal in the shell; then cutting off the very top of the cone shell (the part of the cone shell that would naturally become a puka shell after the animal dies and the shell tumbles in the ocean over many decades), then polishing the edges to give the cut shell the appearance of an ocean polished puka shell. Unfortunately, the people who were buying puka shell necklaces at that time were ignorant of those facts, having no idea what they were actually buying. Due to the flooding of the market with those cheap imported necklaces in 1976 I closed my business, and before it was offered for sale, this VINTAGE 70’s necklace along with my other shell jewelry creations at the time WERE STORED IN RESERVE. Then, 47 years later in 2023 I became aware of the new popularity of Hawaiian Puka Shell Necklaces again. So, I opened and made available that reserve to the public, so they too can enjoy my unique vintage ‘Puka Jewelry Creations’ along with my other vintage ‘Ocean Jewels Hawaii’ creations. This authentic Hawaiian handcrafted necklace was made in 1976 with Pukas collected on the Waianae Coast, Oahu, Hawaii in 1976 as were all the other necklaces listed in this shop, and has been stored in reserve, untouched and unseen, until now. This makes it a unique piece of vintage jewelry, a timeless beauty that has never been owned or worn. NOTE: Along with the hundreds of necklaces I stored in reserve and are now offering in my Etsy shop, were an assortment of thousands of unstrung pukas, that enables me to also make custom necklaces to your design requirements with vintage 70s pukas. T O ∙ O W N ∙ A N D ∙ A D O R N O R ∙ T O ∙ G I F T The Barrel Clasp ensures the necklace stays securely in place, giving you peace of mind as you embark on your daily adventures.

T H E ∙ W O R D ∙ ‘P U K A’ The word «puka» means ‘hole’ in Hawaiian. Puka shells start out as Cone shells. After the Cone shell’s animal dies, the shell tumbles in the ocean and sand until they become natural little disks with holes in the center – natural ocean jewels. Puka shells are found here on the beaches and chosen because of a naturally created hole in the center, usually caused by the top of the shell being broken off after many decades of tumbling in the ocean and crashing in the surf resulting in the opening of the center of the shell. Then tumbling in the surf and sand gently smoothing all the rough edges. Hawaii’s Marine Biologists state, except for the very small ‘baby’ pukas that can take a decade or more to form, it often takes 50 to 100 years, or longer for some, to form the final puka shell found on Hawaii’s beaches. Each puka shell is so special and unique, no two are alike, and each hold so much ocean history. They have natural grooves and divots as well as worn areas because they are a natural, not a manufactured material. Owning a Puka Shell Necklace is owning a unique piece of the ocean’s history.I have always loved the natural beauty of the colors and patterns of shells and the uniqueness of each shell. I consider them ‘the jewels of the ocean’. I wanted to share the beauty of what nature, and the ocean created with others by creating beautiful shell pendants, earrings, necklaces, leis, and bracelets to emphasize the colors and patterns of these ocean jewels. The appeal and beauty of shells inspired ancient Hawaiians to adorn themselves with these natural jewels of the ocean. Now, ‘Ocean Jewels’ Hawaii makes it possible for you to have and own the timeless beauty of Puka Shells. You are more than a customer. We are Ohana (a family).

BUYER’S CAUTION: Unfortunately, I’ve discovered in my google research, that among the many legitimate Hawaii sellers that sell genuine Hawaiian necklaces made from authentic puka shells they are now collecting from Hawaii’s beaches, today there are also people, selling online, and representing the necklaces they’re selling as made in Hawaii with Hawaiian puka shells, when they are actually Philippine ’manufactured’ necklaces made from living baby cone shells using the same process as I just described above, and sometimes polishing the bottom and edges of the cut shell to make them look like ‘ocean polished pukas’ and calling them puka shell necklaces.
