Vaiana Necklace
You’ve always kept your most precious things close, just as the kina keeps its own at the centre. This pearl necklace sits right over your heart, exactly where it belongs.
The Vaiana Necklace is the boldest piece in our Sea Urchin collection: an oversized carved kina pendant with an 11mm Tahitian pearl hanging from its base. The kina is the strength you carry boldly into every new chapter. The pearl, resting over your heart, is the tenderness you carry with it.
Wear it to a graduation, to an awards night, or to your parents’ anniversary dinner. Over a plain black dress, it’s all the statement you need.

Some things are too important to keep in a drawer.
Quiet Strength, Hidden Beauty
Like the kina, you’re strong on the outside and full of life within. This Tahitian pearl jewellery collection was made for both sides of you.
The kina has a long place in Pacific tattoo artistry. Its radiating spines stand ready to protect what matters, while inside it holds softness and life. Every piece in this collection carries that story: a kina design in gold-filled or silver-filled metal, with a Tahitian pearl at its heart. The kina is your strength. The pearl is everything precious you carry within: your wisdom, your faith, your tenderness.
Choose a pearl ring that sits like a quiet crown, pearl earrings that lead with the heart, a bold pearl necklace that rests close to yours, or pearl bracelets that hold your story link by link.
You can be soft and still be strong. You can be gentle and still rise. You can keep a tender heart and walk boldly into everything ahead.
Wear it as your armour, your peace, your story. This is Pacific jewellery from NZ, designed for exactly who you are today.

STEP ONE
Keep them gunk-free. Cosmetics, sunblock, perfume and hairspray can dramatically dull the lustre, as can your body oils and perspiration.
Chemicals such as bleach, sulphur and detergents can also erode the gems, leaving them dull.
STEP TWO
Avoid wearing jewellery while swimming (chlorine, fresh or saltwater) or activities involving water.
STEP THREE
Avoid cleaning agents and regularly wipe with a soft, damp cloth after wearing.
If need be, use clean warm water with a cloth and make sure the metals are dried out afterwards.
STEP FOUR
Store correctly. Get into the habit of storing your jewellery correctly will ensure that it has a long life.
Keep your jewellery in a soft pouch or soft lined jewellery box.
