Shell necklace and pink hibiscus on black lava rock

Can’t find the one?

Let’s make it together. Bring me a shell, a stone or just an idea.

In shades from silver to deep black, each pair of these Tahitian pearl earrings holds a genuine pearl sourced directly from Tahiti, handmade on the North Shore of Oʻahu in 14k gold-filled.

Most hang one, two, or three pearls from small huggies. Bolder hoops are shaped and hammered by hand, drop styles pair a pearl with a tumbled cone shell collected on my dives, and fine threaders hold small Tahitian keshi.

To complete the set, see the Tahitian pearl necklaces.

Tahitian pearl

The dark pearls I reach for most, grown by the black-lipped pearl oyster in French Polynesia. Their colors range from green to almost purple, and they sit next to my shells in so many of my designs.

Questions

Do you make Tahitian pearl stud earrings?

Right now my Tahitian pearl earrings are huggies, hoops, drops and threaders rather than studs. If you'd love a stud style, reach out and ask about a custom order.

What are huggie earrings?

Huggies are small, snug hoops that hug close to the earlobe. A pearl hanging from a huggie moves a little when you do but stays comfortable all day.

Can I wear Tahitian pearl earrings in the shower?

I've worn my own in the ocean and the shower, and the gold-filled holds up well. Pearls are softer than gemstones, though, so rinse them with fresh water and don't make it a constant habit.
