Sterling Maile Leaf Earrings

These lovely Maile leaf earrings flash with sparkling sterling silver. These are shorter than my long Maile leaf earrings and detailed on both sides. The weight brings you the energizing feeling of their movement. I use leaver back earring closures to prevent inadvertent loss as these can be worn for elegant affairs or everyday. The leaf is one and a half inches long.

Maile is one of the oldest and most popular lei material used in ancient Hawai‘i. It was most commonly worn for the worship of the gods of hula and even used as a symbol of peace offering in times of battle. Its leaves are believed to protect the wearer, bestow good luck, and even possess healing power
