Our materials are always sustainably and ethically sourced. The bone used is a natural by-product from domesticated cattle (beef or water buffalo), ensuring no harm to wild or endangered animals. We proudly support eco-conscious and cruelty-free craftsmanship.

Your necklace arrives in a soft gift pouch and includes an informational card explaining the Makau’s symbolism, making it a thoughtful gift for travelers, surfers, ocean enthusiasts, or anyone who treasures traditional Hawaiian and Maori jewelry.
