The Collection

49 one-of-a-kind Hawaiian shell bolo ties. Each is built around a single shell I gathered by hand — most from Hawaiian shores, a few carried home from shorelines across the Pacific — and cleaned, tumbled and hand-polished in my Kailua-Kona studio. No molds, no repeats. When a piece finds its keeper, it's gone for good.
