Kai Moana | Vintage Milk Glass & Turquoise Three-Piece Jewelry Set
Moku by Quarry | Signature Collection
Vintage treasures. Ocean blues. Island soul.
Some pieces are simply meant to stay together.
Created as individual designs, Kai Moana became something even more beautiful when we brought the necklace and two coordinating bracelets together. Their colors, textures, and distinctive vintage character complemented one another so perfectly that we couldn't bear to separate them. And so, this lovely three-piece ensemble was born.
Inspired by the beauty of coastal waters and the timeless appeal of treasured vintage materials, Kai Moana combines vibrant blue turquoise, rare vintage Japanese milk glass, and intricate antique silver accents in a collection that celebrates both history and contemporary artisan design.
The Necklace
At the heart of this stunning design are beautiful blue turquoise beads in graduated sizes of 10mm, 8mm, and 6mm, thoughtfully arranged with the larger gemstones toward the center and smaller beads near the ends. Their rich blue tones create a captivating foundation for the soft white vintage glass.
Interspersed throughout are 6mm vintage white milk glass beads from Miriam Haskell stock, handmade in Japan circa the late 1940s to early 1950s. These remarkable beads carry a special connection to the golden age of costume jewelry, when Japanese glassmakers produced exquisite beads treasured by celebrated American jewelry designers.
Today, vintage beads from this era are highly sought after by jewelry artisans and collectors who appreciate their history, quality, and distinctive character. At The Quarry Shop, we especially love giving these beautiful treasures a new story, transforming vintage materials into contemporary designs that can be worn and cherished once again.
Delicate antique silver flat flower-disc spacers are thoughtfully arranged in selected segments throughout the necklace, adding intricate texture and subtle vintage charm while beautifully enhancing the contrast between the turquoise and milk glass.
Measuring approximately 20.5 inches in length, the necklace features a sterling silver magnetic closure and clasp, along with a 3.5-inch sterling silver extension chain for adjustable styling. The clasp can be secured to a preferred link on the extension chain, allowing the magnetic closure to provide easy fastening and removal.
A dainty sterling silver charm at the end of the extension chain provides a lovely finishing touch, part of The Quarry Shop's signature attention to detail.
The Coordinating Bracelets
Bracelet One | Vintage White Milk Glass & Turquoise
A beautiful companion to the necklace, the first bracelet features 8mm vintage white milk glass beads from Miriam Haskell stock, accented with antique silver spacers. At its center rests a striking 10mm blue turquoise bead, creating a lovely focal point against the luminous white glass.
Strung on a clear stretch cord for comfortable wear, this bracelet fits wrists up to approximately 6.75 inches.
Bracelet Two | Vintage Milk Glass & Blue Turquoise
The second bracelet offers a slightly more delicate interpretation of the design, featuring 6mm vintage white milk glass beads from Miriam Haskell stock, blue turquoise beads, and coordinating antique silver spacers.
Also strung on a clear stretch cord, this bracelet comfortably fits wrists up to approximately 6.75 inches.
Three Pieces. One Beautiful Story.
What makes Kai Moana especially lovely is its versatility. Wear all three pieces together for a beautifully coordinated coastal statement, pair the bracelets for a relaxed layered look, or let the necklace shine on its own.
The brilliant turquoise blues, soft vintage whites, and antique silver details complement everything from casual linen and denim to flowing summer dresses and elegant resort attire.
A celebration of treasured materials and thoughtful craftsmanship, Kai Moana brings the beauty of the past into the present, creating something entirely new while honoring the history of what came before.
