Manta Rays are an icon of the Maldives. From the humble Reef Manta Ray to their more elusive cousins, the Giant Oceanic Manta Ray, these marine behemoths have a safe haven in our crystal clear waters. As artists, we draw inspiration from the ocean and the Manta Ray’s silent flight in our waters have been awe inspiring. Our Manta Ray pendants are designed to immortalise these beautiful creatures in all its graceful glory. Be it elegant nights, or a day by the sea, they can be worn effortlessly for any occasion. 

In support of conservation through research, education and collaboration, Oevaali Art Shop has been partnering with the Manta Trust towards a sustainable future for the oceans, where manta rays and their relatives thrive in healthy, diverse marine ecosystems. 5% of your purchase of the Manta Ray Silver + Sapphire Pendant is donated to the Manta Trust & their work for our oceans.

The Maldives is home to five of the seven species of the world’s marine turtles. From the rare Olive Ridley to gargantuan Leatherback, sea turtles have graced our seas and shores with their presence for aeons. Though they have been traditionally hunted for their meat, eggs and shells, the mentality toward these amazing creatures have been gradually changing over the past few decades. With the combined efforts of conservationists, scientists and the authorities, many sanctuaries now exist in the Maldives. Their efforts have shown to be fruitful, as turtle numbers have been making a comeback and becoming a common sight for divers and snorkelling enthusiasts. 

The Turtle Pendant was inspired by the most common yet arguably the most beautiful native sea turtle - the Hawksbill. 

In support of conservation through rescue and providing clinical care, Oevaali Art Shop is happy to partner with The Olive Ridley Project since 2021, to give these beautiful creatures a second chance at life. 5% of your purchase of the Turtle Silver +Sapphire Pendant is donated to the Olive Ridley Project and their work for our oceans.

Wear this pendant as a show of solidarity for the continued efforts to conserve these amazing creatures for future generations. 

The wily Grey Heron has always held a place of importance in Maldivian folklore. From the folk stories of “Maakana Kalo” to modern incarnations in political satire, the Maakana or the Grey Heron has always played the role of an intelligent and cunning character. This is seemingly true upon sighting a heron on the beach, standing on one leg, in deep thought. 

The Heron Pendant captures the intelligence and perseverance of this magnificent creature.

The manta ray is undoubtedly one of the most elegant creatures in the ocean. This collection of the manta ray pendants aim to capture the elegance in two bold colours. A perfect accessory to accentuate a strong yet refined sensibility.

The Classic Cuff celebrates the Maldives, an ancient kingdom of a thousand isles. The naturally beautiful arrangement of the Maldivian atolls are delicately carved into a modern, minimalist, classic stainless steel cuff, that works for just about every occasion.

The cross section of the nautilus shell is symbolic of the logarithmic spiral or the “eternal line”, presenting itself in nature. Once the matte layer with the stripes is removed, a second, strikingly iridescent layer is revealed. The Nautilus Pendants pay tribute to the beautiful ancient creatures and their art-inspiring shells.

Giant clams, or Gaa’haka, as they are known in the Maldives, are found in shallow coral reefs and lagoons, and they are an important part of the ecosystem in the Maldives. 

This design is inspired by the undulating curves of the shells of these magnificent creatures.

The Thresher Shark is the definition of savage beauty. They use their long, cartilaginous tails to stun their prey. These pendants aim to capture this elusive creature’s stunning beauty and reserved aggression in one timeless piece.
