Salty Stacks debuts at Shops at Kukui‘ula in Poʻipū, expanding its presence on Kaua‘i

Salty Stacks, a locally owned permanent and custom jewelry brand, is opening its second location Nov. 28 — Black Friday — at The Shops at Kukui‘ula in Poʻipū.

The jeweler opened its first Kaua‘i storefront in March 2024 at Coconut Marketplace in Kapaʻa, and its brand grew out of a meaningful family moment.

Salty Stacks founder Lindsey Rivera took her daughter and her daughter’s best friend to get matching bracelets in 2023 before the friend moved off-island. That experience sparked the idea of creating a space where people could mark special occasions with pieces designed specifically for them.

“We’ve always embraced an island girl aesthetic, and that influences everything we bring into our space,” said Rivera in the announcement about the second location opening. “I wanted to create something special, a place where people can celebrate life’s moments with pieces that feel personal and unique.”

Salty Stacks offers a full range of customizable jewelry experiences, including:

• More than 30 permanent jewelry chain styles.
• A charm and shell bar.
• Custom pieces ranging from hand chains, charm necklaces and earrings.
• Fully customizable permanent bangles.
• Private events in-store or on-location.

The new 1,000-square-foot location at The Shops at Kukui‘ula includes multiple workstations designed to accommodate daily visitors and larger groups.

“Salty Stacks provides a unique concept with a fun atmosphere that we are excited to share at The Shops at Kukui‘ula,” said Alexander & Baldwin Senior Property Manager Michael Hubbard in the announcement. “Their approach and emphasis on custom craftsmanship complement the island character of our center and offer something special for both residents and visitors.”

Salty Stacks at The Shops at Kukui‘ula will be open 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. daily. Guests can follow the brand on Instagram at @saltystackshawaii.
