The enduring cigar lei is made from hundreds of tiny cylindrical flowers of the Cuphea Ignia plant which are a blazing red and orange with a white tip. From its appearance (a burning cigar), this flower got its popular nickname. Because of its color and streamlined appearance, the cigar lei is a favorite among many males, however, we think this lei looks stunning on woman as well. The exquisite lei design resembles fine Indian beadwork and is sewn by only the finest and talented lei makers. This lei will vary in color and pattern, depending on the season for flowers. Pattern and color may have orange, yellow, burgandy, or crimson. Color is not guaranteed.
The unpretentious Ti Leaf Lei (may be ordered either open-ended or closed) is made from the beautiful Ti plant. Ancient Hawaiians believe that the Ti Leaf Lei possesses healing powers and brings the wearer good luck. The Ti leaves are boiled, massaged with oil, and braided into a pleasing, yet simple lei. The Ti Leaf Lei may also be dried as a keepsake.
Care: Refrigerate in sealed plastic bag or container.
