Kauila Necklace

One Hawaiian legend tells of Kauila, a giant turtle goddess who would transform into a human girl to play with and protect the Keiki (children) playing along the shore of Punalu’u. As the children played, they would see bubbles rising from its depths and say that was Kauila sleeping.

Our KAUILA piece will help you embody the characteristics of the Honu, or green sea turtle. Honu (pronounced ho-noo) are a symbol of longevity, safety, and mana (spiritual energy) in Hawaiian culture. Their presence brings good luck, peace and represent the eternal link between man, land and sea.
