Aquahine: AQUA = Water + WAHINE = The Hawaiian word for girl = WATERGIRL
Welcome to AQUAHINE, Sea Glass with Hawaiian Soul. At Aquahine, you’ll
discover a unique experience in handmade sea glass jewelry from
the beaches of the Hawaiian Islands. Deb Nava is the face and talent
behind AQUAHINE; you’ll find that much of her inspiration and all of
her designs come from precious gifts from the sea. Deb's sea glass
findings are truly one-of-a-kind pieces, recycled from man-made glass
once created from sand, used by man, then discarded...... over time the
sea, sun, wind and elements of nature have shaped, molded and
infused the glass with a color and feel unique to Hawaiian sea glass,
depositing it back to the sand from whence it came.

While residing on the Kona Coast of Hawaii and traveling extensively
throughout the Hawaiian Island chain, Deb has transformed her
inspiration and passion for sea glass into unique, beautiful handmade pieces. Each has a story to tell
and a feel that can only come from having been shaped, worn, tossed and
carried by the Pacific Ocean. One can only imagine what these various
findings originally were, before the sea transformed them into their
current existence. From Japanese sake bottles, carried thousands of
miles by ocean currents to broken bottles from a fisherman, throwing
nets to catch food to feed his family. The mind can only imagine what
the origins of these unique findings are.........
Having spent the last 25 years collecting ocean findings and making
beautiful ocean-inspired jewelry and art pieces for family and friends,
Deb now shares the wonder of the these unique sea glass pieces with
others. We all value these unusual sea glass treasures more each year, as the availability of sea glass disappears from our ocean shores.
Inspired by the sea, Deb carefully selects each piece of sea glass,
designing each and every piece, bringing you closer to the sea she
loves so much.
Since Aquahine designs are "ONE OF A KIND" creations, it would be
impossible to show and offer specific designs for sale. For custom
orders or general information, please contact Deb directly at:
