OUR STORY
Born in the coastal haven of Byron Bay, Australia, Kawai Jewellery was created to celebrate life’s colourful moments and the beauty of simplicity.
Our story begins in a charming bead store tucked away in the heart of Tokyo. Each year, we wander its wooden aisles of the Tila bead shops, hand-selecting colours that remind us of ocean tides, coral reefs, and golden sunsets. It’s there that the inspiration for each new collection truly begins.
Sourcing the Beads
Our journey begins each year in a beautiful bead store hidden in the heart of Tokyo, where shelves glisten with thousands of Miyuki Tila glass beads in every colour of the rainbow. We hand-select every shade and finish, choosing those that capture the ocean’s shimmer, the calm of sunrise, and the joy of colour.
Hand-Weaving
Every piece is individually handwoven using precision techniques that honour Japanese craftsmanship. We use strong, durable elastic to ensure flexibility and comfort while maintaining the delicate look of glass beadwork.
Quality & Waterproof Testing
Before a design joins our collection, it’s worn, tested, and loved — in the ocean, under the sun, and through everyday adventures. Only pieces that stand the test of beach days and salty swims become part of the Kawai family.
Packed With Love
Each order is thoughtfully packaged in our signature Kawai Jewellery box, ready to be gifted or treasured.
