While at the Ruckus, I saw Pattye wearing a pair of intriguing earrings. They were hand-carved Kamoka mother-of-pearl earrings and I asked where she'd gotten them. Well, low-and-behold Josh and Celeste were standing right there by the refrigerator and I asked if they had more of these. They said they could make a few more and voila -- they became available last night!
I snagged the last pair of 4 available last night!
Here's the description:
Heiarii, one of our all-time favorite members of the Kamoka crew, designed the carvings on these lustrous and colorful rectangles of Kamoka mother of pearl. The patterns are not only distinctly Polynesian, but are a unique work from this local Ahe artist.
Each piece has a pale silvery, 9mm slightly baroque pearl dangling from the bottom from a Sterling silver wire wrap, and the earrings hang on Sterling silver ear wires. The mother of pearl shows off the intense color spectrum of Tahitian pearls from iridescent white and bronze to bright green, pinks and blues.
The earrings measure 55mm (2.2 inches) from the base of the ear wire.
The question is -- where are the other 3 pairs? Are they going home to any of you?!
