What are Heishi stones?

Heishi beads are flat or disc-shaped beads. Heishi means "shell" in Keres, a Native American language, reflecting their origins as small ornaments made from shells, mother of pearl, and other natural stones. These small stone discs were very popular in the 90s as a simple surfer accessory. That's why Heishi beads give us a seaside and casual style vibe, ideal for wearing on the beach and during summer seasons.
