Who We Are

Kiki and Nai’a Hawai’i is a jewelry design company and lifestyle brand that creates unique, high-quality, long-lasting jewelry meant to enhance and empower the wearer bringing them joy, delight and confidence.  We also curate other Native Hawaiian-made jewelry and gift products to share the beauty and aloha of the special place and culture of Hawai’i.

Kiki and Nai’a Hawai’i first began as a side venture to fund the education and activities of my daughter Nai’a, over 10 years ago.  I learned to solder from a local jewelry class and discovered that I enjoyed crafting finely made jewelry as well as wearing unique and beautiful jewelry accessories created from my own designs.  I taught myself more techniques and experimented with new designs using local material as well as gemstones from around the world.  I enjoy travelling and learning about other cultures and hope to source material from my travels as well as share a bit about our Hawaiian culture throughout the world.

My aspirations to encourage and inspire Nai'a to find her passion and own her own business has been met as she ventured on to start her own jewelry line and store in Kona, Nai'a Elle Jewelry and Boutique.  Visit her at www.NaiaElleJewelry.com and on Sarona Road off Ali'i Drive in Kailua-Kona.
