Sterling Silver Hawaiian Lei Charms Origins of Lei Making The history of lei making in Hawaii begins with the arrival of the Polynesians. Throughout the South Pacific, Polynesians honored their gods by twining greens into wreaths and adorning their own bodies with strings of flowers and vines. When they arrived in Hawaii, in addition to the useful plants they brought for food, medicine and building, they also brought ginger (`awapuhi), a fragrant flower used for decoration and adornment. During the settlement period - roughly 750 AD through the 1300s - lei throughout Polynesia were very similar. Types included temporary fragrant lei such as maile and hala as well as non-perishable lei like lei niho palaoa (whale or walrus bone), lei pupu (shell) and lei hulu manu (feather). After long ocean voyages ceased and Hawaiians entered a period of cultural isolation (1300s-1778), they developed a richer variety of lei than anywhere else in Polynesia. In a lifestyle that fused ritual and nature with every aspect of daily life, lei were a ubiquitous ornament worn during any type of work activity, celebration or rite, by maka`ainana (commoners) as well as ali`i (chiefs). 101-110-SC353 Sterling Silver Hawaiian Lei Charms $29.40 WOW Sale Price!! -> $8.82 101-110-SC353fgp Plated Gold over Sterling Gold Hawaiian Lei Charm Pendant $47.40        Charms made into mens' accessory items: tie tacks lapel pins, and cuff links if possible: 101-110-TTSC353 Charm made into Sterling Silver Hawaiian Lei Tie Tacks Lapel Pin $48.94 101-110-TTGC353 Charm made into Gold over Sterling Silver Hawaiian Lei Tie Tacks Lapel Pin $64.94 101-110-CLSC353 Sterling Silver Hawaiian Lei Cuff Links $94.91 Our fine 18 inch sterling Chain $14.95 Our fine elegant 18 inch sterling silver chain is on sale.
