Kauai Handmade

Kauai Handmade was founded in 2018 by owner and bench jeweler Stephanie Deng. What began as a passion for handcrafted jewelry grew into a thriving small business, and in 2019, Kauai Handmade opened its first brick-and-mortar jewelry boutique at Coconut Marketplace in Kapaa.
Stephanie specializes in handcrafted jewelry featuring Tahitian pearls, South Sea pearls, freshwater pearls, Kahelelani shells, momi shells, sunrise shells, gemstones, and quality precious metals. Every piece is thoughtfully designed and meticulously handcrafted.
After more than 6.5 years of building and running the shop independently, Stephanie made the decision to close the Kauai storefront in Aug 2026, and return to Seattle to be closer to family. While the island chapter has come to a close, Kauai Handmade continues its journey online and in Seattle. We now offers pop-up jewelry workshops, private one-on-one jewelry-making training, mobile permanent jewelry services, and bespoke jewelry design. Whether you’re interested in learning traditional bench jewelry techniques or creating a one-of-a-kind heirloom piece, every experience is rooted in exceptional craftsmanship, creativity, and personal connection.
