Welcome to Aquahine...Sea glass with Hawaiian soul.
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: 808-345-3673 or e-mail her at: aquahine@aol.com
