On a whim, while strolling down Kalakaua, decided to browse Koa Nani. Visited once before when this store was located in Royal Hawaiian Center. They have a wide selection on bands to choose from. Mentioned what I was searching for and they were very helpful in providing recommendations. Not pushy at all. At the end, I found my ring. Yellow gold band with etching and diamonds. Hubs ended up buying it for me for my birthday. It's a great addition to my set.

Thought I'd do a review of a long standing shop in Haleiwa - this store has been here for a lot of…read moreyears, so that alone should give you confidence. I have seen it forever, but will admit this was my first time actually stopping in to see what was offered. First reaction - a really nice selection of saltwater and freshwater pearls, reflecting choices from black to baroque to white pearls. Black pearls, white pearls, a mix of colors, this place has a ton of options. What I really appreciated was an honest assessment of each option I looked at - oysters can be finicky with pearls, and create perfection as well as a "perfection" that would appeal to many of us. What I really appreciated was no push to upsell, just a genuine aloha to help me and other people in the store find something that was right for them. This store doesn't have a lot of local reviews, so I felt it important to give a local. honest review. Frankly, I expected just to do a "just looking" walk through - after all, regardless of what tourists think, pearls are not found in our waters, let alone oysters - but the personal service, and the comfort, even glee of pointing out what may not be "perfect" but will have character, is what sets apart a personal sales experience from mass market. Ultimately, I chose a fantastic looking black saltwater pearl with an "imperfection" that played beautifully into the gold clasp. The price was quite reasonable, the help in shopping made it a learning experience as well as a discovery. I don't know anything about pearls, I'm from Oahu and we don't have pearls/oysters here, but I loved this little shop and the honest discovery. If you are local playing tourist for the day like me, or a tourist, for crafted jewelry, this is a very nice spot.

Because the cost of gold is extremely high and even with a light weight bangle, the cost was still too high. So I decided to pivot and get a sterling silver bangle but I wanted it personalized. Then, I found this shop (thanks yelp), and decided to check it out. It's in the same building as Poke Fix. I had to sign in with the security guard at the front and then took the elevator to spot. It's a small suite and the owner is very nice and I told him what I wanted. He helped me choose a sterling silver bangle with an enamel raised lettering for my name, with a traditional design. It took less than 72 hours for me to pick up my bracelet and it is beautiful. I am so pleased with it. Thank you, leilei jewelry! So glad to also support a small business and look forward to ordering future pieces (also check out their IG page).

I've followed Around The Pearl since their shop at the Ohana Hale Marketplace which is sadly now is gone and replaced by a condominium so I'm happy to hear many of the tenants has found home all around town Around the Pearl is here in Ala Moana Center. You can find them at Target Wing on the Lower Level near Tiger Sugar though is very easily found as they have a projector beaming their logo on their front door. It's easy to see why I'd visit them with the load of various Tahitian Pearls in ever form of jewelry for both men and women but the owner who is from Tahiti brings over various beautiful pearls and will sell them to you in various grades as well. The imperfections are perfectly beautiful and so are many other lovely shades that they do come in and he also will drill holes in them for you as well. Whatever size you want the holes to be drilled and all at great deal, I make all my bangles with his pearls only as I know they are genuine and will describe any pearls you may have questions about. Nothing like authentic which is the best deal which he does offer great prices along with various sizes and colors as well. Thank you!

You're my favorite shopping center because of the free parking, cool air conditioning, clean environment, and fantastic variety of shopping options and foodie adventures! I knew exactly where this vendor - Around The Pearl - was located because I have been browsing their merchandise almost everytime I visited OHM. In my head, I thought that one day... I would own some Tahitian Pearls... and the day finally arrived! Luckily, one of my friends tagged me on an Instagram Contest, sponsored by OHM, and I entered. That's really nice of the management of OHM to help small businesses advertise their vendors and help them bring in customers! OHM contacted me and gave my name and number to Around The Pearl. After looking at the Instagram photos online, I had a better idea of what I wanted to get. When I got to Around The Pearl, the owner, Steeve, was very helpful and knowledgeable. He said that he and his wife, Nadine (great name), are from Tahiti. They bring the pearls in directly from Tahiti and have been in business for over 20 years. They supply pearls to local retailers... so... get your pearls here! The prices are better and are of the same high quality! I told Steeve that I didn't want a necklace, ring, or bracelet because I'm kinda clumsy. Of course, he patiently showed me all of the earrings. At first, I wanted lever back style so that I won't lose the earrings. Then, I saw the heart shaped hoops and that was it. They're different and won't fall off the ears! LOL! Perfect! So - come to Around The Pearl for that special gift - or treat yourself to one of nature's special ocean treasures!
