  1. Mahalo Keoni, Heather and Milo!

    Posted by Andrea on 7th Mar 2012

    My boyfriend and I are here on Kauai for the first time and met Keoni and Heather at the Hanalei Sunshine Market. I had my eyes open for a meaningful souvenir of our first romantic vacation together and of the life stories that have led us to one another. Keoni's gorgeous pearl-adorned fish hooks caught my eye right away for their beauty, elegance, symbolism, and impeccable execution. My boyfriend noticed my interest in these pieces and purchased a beautiful pendant for me as a gift. I feel so happy to wear this gorgeous reminder of our trip to Kauai, our love, the Islands and the centrality of personal strength, resolve and compassion in achieving our heart's desires. Mahalo!

  2. A gift of Love

    Posted by Elizabeth Pearl on 19th Feb 2012

    While on vacation in Jan. of this year, my husband bought me a beautiful black pearl necklace for our 35th wedding anniversary. I love my necklace and wear it with pride. I have had lots of compliments on it, including from strangers. The history of the fishing hook is fascinating and truly authentic Hawaian. The craftsmanship of the piece is exquisite. Keoni is an exceptional artist. Mahalo.

  3. Finding unexpected treasure

    Posted by Minda Bickley on 13th Feb 2012

    On a recent visit to the Hanalei Farmers Market on the beautiful island of Kauai, I left adorned not with fresh fruit and vegetables, but instead with an absolutely gorgeous pendant and a shopping experience that I will always treasure. The single barb black pearl pendant looks and feels elegant. I will wear it with pride as it carries not just the beauty of the pearl, but the memory of meeting Keoni and Heather and the aloha spirit of the island. Thank you for sharing not only your incredible talent, but also a little bit of yourself with us.

  4. Keoni

    Posted by Tom Rice, Princeville on 11th Feb 2012

    I have been blessed knowing Keoni for many years. He has crafted from his own imagination (and his research into ancient Hawaiian arts) many unique pieces for me, including a major curly koa hand weapon with Great White Shark teeth (no wimpy tigers for me!), and many fish hooks -- including the beautiful 6-barb (Maui style) hook in 18K gold, and now the gorgeous single-barb Tahitian black pearl pendant, which I'm giving to my wife for Valentine's Day.

    Mahalo Nui Loa Keoni, I am proud to call you my friend.
