Kai Hōkū Four Strand Blue Miyuki Necklace | Fair Trade Ethiopian Beads | Moku by Quarry
 
Ocean-inspired. Artisan-made. Effortlessly timeless.
 
Inspired by the tranquil beauty of the sea beneath a starlit sky, the Kai Hōkū Necklace celebrates handcrafted artistry from across the globe. Four graceful strands create beautiful movement and texture, blending rich ocean blues with warm golden accents for a look that is both relaxed and refined.
 
Each strand is individually hand-strung on a soft neutral satin cord with Picasso Montana Blue Matte 8/0 Miyuki Seed Beads, renowned for the exceptional quality and precision of Japanese glass craftsmanship. Between the seed beads are 2mm light gold Ethiopian heishi metal spacers, each one individually handcrafted by skilled artisans using traditional techniques. These Fair Trade beads bring warmth, character, and authenticity to every necklace while supporting artisan communities and preserving generations-old craftsmanship.
 
The four strands are gathered into a polished 14k gold-filled ring, creating a naturally layered silhouette that drapes beautifully. A matching 14k gold-filled toggle clasp provides both elegance and security, while The Quarry Shop's signature 14k gold-filled Quarry tag finishes the piece with a refined touch.
 
Whether paired with linen, denim, or a flowing summer dress, Kai Hōkū brings effortless island style to every season.

Symbolism
In Hawaiian, Kai Hōkū means "Star of the Sea." The layered strands represent gentle ocean currents, while the deep Montana blue beads mirror the changing colors of coastal waters at dusk. The handcrafted Ethiopian accents serve as a reminder that beauty is often created through tradition, patience, and skilled hands. Together, they celebrate connection—to the sea, to artisans, and to the stories carried within every handmade piece.
