Our Story

MAIA HAWAIIAN JEWELRY

        E Komo Mai, Welcome. My name is Malia Zoraster and I create original Hawaiian Jewelry. I grew up in a small town called Kaneohe on the East side of O‘ahu. My childhood was immersed in our islands' natural beauty and growing up on our little family farm, I developed a deep respect for the land- the ‘aina and I learned the importance of giving back. My jewelry and artwork are both deeply inspired by my roots in this culture of giving back. Discover my inspiration here.

​

        After moving to the mainland to attend UCLA, I found I deeply missed my island’s natural beauty and culture. In August 2019, I created Mai‘a Hawaiian Jewelry to spread the life spirit of the land and people of Hawai‘i- the Mana. Though I am miles away from home, my original Hawaiian jewelry carries on this beautiful spirit, the beautiful Mana to you.

 

        Mai‘a Hawaiian Jewelry is embraces our Hawaiian culture and the community that has supported us along the way. We hope with every piece you wear, you are taken on a tropical journey back to a place of natural simplicity.
