Between Land & Sea ~ The Arapawa x Montipi Story

Between Land & Sea ~ The Arapawa x Montipi Story

From the depths of the ocean to the glow of golden shores, our collaboration celebrates the meeting of two world Between Land & Sea - where the luminous beauty of Arapawa Blue Pearls meets the poetic elegance of Montipi bags and accessories.

 

Inspired by the rhythm of the tides and the glow of natural light – this story captures the harmony between oceanic shimmer and earthy sophistication.

 

 

I’m so excited to share my collaboration with Arapawa Blue Pearls - a New Zealand brand known for its ethical approach and exquisite craftsmanship. Each piece of paua pearl jewellery is hand-selected to reveal the ocean’s iridescent spectrum, shimmering with blues, greens, and golds that echo nature’s most beautiful palette.

 

P.S. As a special treat for my Montipi Muses...

Why Paua Pearl Jewellery Stands Out


Known for its ethical approach and high-quality craftsmanship Arapawa Blue Pearls captures a story shaped by the sea. The paua’s natural iridescence reflects ocean depths and sunlight on water, creating a spectrum of blues, greens, and soft golden tones. It’s jewellery born of nature’s artistry — luminous, timeless, and always unique.

Each piece of paua pearl jewellery is hand-selected to showcase the natural iridescence of New Zealand’s native paua shell. 

The Paua Radiance Set and Golden Light Set are fan favorites, loved for their unique shimmer and ability to elevate any outfit—from casual daytime looks to elegant evening ensembles. 

  • Craftsmanship: ethically sourced, hand-selected pearls from New Zealand’s waters.
  • Colour: natural paua tones, no two pieces alike.
  • Meaning: oceanic strength meets graceful femininity.

Each paua pearl is a living reflection of the ocean — luminous, wild, and rare.
