Maile & Pikake Lei
$125.00
This gorgeous traditional Hawaiian lei is a mix of the vanilla-scented maile vine found in the rainforest and the intoxicatingly fragrant pikake flowers found in the dry regions of Oahu. Due to this delicate mix, this is a highly perishable lei that can only be shipped to west coast locations. Unfortunately, due to agricultural restrictions in California, the maile lei may not be shipped to this state. For California delivery we suggest the Maile Style Ti Leaf & Tuberose Lei.

RELATED INFORMATION
Vanilla-scented maile is a vine-like shrub that grows in the mountain rainforests of Hawaii. The vine bark and leaves are stripped and intertwined and knotted to make the maile lei. It is associated with Laka, the patron spirit of hula (dance), and was commonly used in sacred ceremonies. Today, the maile lei is the traditional lei used in very important ceremonies, such as weddings and funerals.
The pikake, or Jasmine flower was introduced to Hawaii in the 19th century. It was Princess Kaiulani’s favorite flower, the sweet smelling Arabian Jasmine, was so named “pikake” (peacock) because she was fond of both the flower and the bird.
