Hawaii's King Kalakaua received a gold bracelet from Queen Victoria for the Hawaiian Princess Liliuokalani. The bracelet was solid gold with the princess' name engraved and enameled. Hawaii's royal family and jewelers were so impressed with the bracelet that they created new designs.Among the very early examples of Hawaiian Heirloom Jewelry are Queen Emma's silver bracelet engraved "Aloha ia ka heiheimalie" and Queen Lili'uokalani's bracelet engraved "Aloha." Both bracelets were Victorian in design, yet deeply Hawaiian in wording to reflect their ancestral heritage. Since then, the people of Hawaii have adopted this style of jewelry as their own, and the rest of the United States as well as other nations have grown to admire Hawaiian jewelry.
