Niho Manō Earrings

Manō {sharks} are sacred symbols of strength, guidance, and protection within Hawaiian culture. Ancient Hawaiians believed sharks carried supernatural power, with some families honoring their own shark god. It is also said that the spirits of loved ones may return in the form of sharks, watching over those they protect.

This piece is made by Zaffera Studios, representing her Hawaiian culture. Inspired by niho manō, the shark tooth, represented through the ancient triangle symbol. Completely handcrafted in sterling silver, it is a labor of love—each line shaped with intention, each detail honoring ancestry, land, and spirit.

Worn close to the body, this piece serves as a quiet talisman. A reminder of your connection to your higher self, your kūpuna (ancestors), and the ʻāina (the land). Strong yet subtle, protective yet deeply personal.

Details:
• Material: Sterling Silver
• Handcrafted with intention
• Inspired by the sacred symbolism of niho manō

A piece to carry with you. Rooted in reverence, resilience, and the wisdom that moves through generations.
