Akalei Designs will be selling at the Cannery Mall with Lahaina Arts Society on Friday Feb 20th and Saturday Feb 28th (10am to 3pm). We continue to expand our brand and hope you like our new designs of blending Japanese tradition with modern island style lei.
Akalei Designs reimagines traditional kumihimo and creates truly unique aloha inspired Forever Lei. Find us at the Cannery Mall in Lahaina - check schedules on website and instagram. All our jewelry is handcrafted exclusively on Maui..
These Hawaiian Lei incorporate tiny rice shaped, mini-dagger or long drop glass beads into a design similar to the tiny seeds inside a Lilikoi (Passion Fruit) - imagine threading over a thousand grains of rice and that is what is similar when weaving the variety of glass beads into our unique designs. Akalei Designs blends Japanese Kumihimo braiding techniques with tropical Hawaiian flower lei to reimagine the world of jewelry at an affordable price. Many of these can be made at a length you desire.
Inspiration for our lei come through flowers, coral, reef fish, ocean life and luscious landscapes of the Hawaiian islands. Lei can be made for any occasion, including Weddings, Graduations, Baby Showers, Birthdays, & Anniversaries. Matching earrings can be custom order on many of the Hawaiian Island items.
