The Story of Maile

Maile is a native Hawaiian vine with glossy, fragrant leaves that grows in the cool, upland forests of all the islands. Adored for its beauty, scent and in its representation for respect and peace. Maile is sacred to Laka, the deity of hula, and offerings of maile were made in the field of battle. Today it is the lei associated with royalty and deep respect in celebrations. They are worn by a bride and groom at weddings, draped across the shoulders of distinguished guests, and given to celebrate graduations.

Designs in the Maile Collection

Our maile jewelry designs follow the vine's defining leaf clusters and the way maile is traditionally worked into leis, following their natural drape. Our styles extend the strand pattern around the band, or showcase the delicate leaves individually across pendants, earrings and bracelets.

Craftsmanship

Every piece is crafted in solid 14K gold or sterling silver. Delicate leaf detail brings out the maile's defining pattern. Diamonds accent the spine or amongst the leaves in other styles.
