This handcrafted statement ring celebrates the cultural and symbolic essence of ʻopihi, a cherished limpet shellfish in Hawaiian tradition. The centerpiece is an authentic ʻopihi shell, set in sterling silver, highlighting its natural texture and bold, organic design. A symbol of resilience, strength, and connection to the ʻāina (land) and kai (sea), ʻopihi clings steadfastly to rocky shores, embodying perseverance in the face of life’s challenges. This timeless design pays homage to Hawaiian heritage and the spirit of community, sustainability, and respect for the environment. Wear this piece as a reminder of your own resilience and the enduring strength found in nature and culture.
Note*: there is a teeny tiny space between the bezel and the sheet supporting the shell. The ring is very much secure and longlasting. This is just an unnoticeable, cosmetic flaw.
