Kela’s Glass Gallery

Nice glass jewelry. Not cheap but my girls all found items they liked. Definitely worth a look.

Pretty nice glass shop crammed in next to shave ice and t-​shirt shops. Kind of a strange juxtaposition. They get pretty busy, so be patient.
We got a beautiful perfume bottle. They packed it quite securely so I didn’t worry about it surviving the trip home.

Kela’s is a beautiful gallery in Kapaa that is a great little town I recommend checking out. There is a variety of artists from all over the world that have their glass in this location. It is worth a stop just to check out all the beautiful glass talent. The prices for some of the stuff didn’t seem that crazy factoring in the location.

My husband found a pineapple Pandora charm to bring home to his Mom. I remember finding the price to be very affordable around $ 30. They packaged it nicely for us. The glass was pretty to look at for a few minutes.

Many years ago I purchased from their website,
, and today I bought another beautiful piece from their website. The website does a terrific job illustrating all of their items in glorious, vivid colors and with the most wonderful close-​up detail.
As I wanted to know more about the item I was interested in prior to buying it, I phoned the store before business hours and left my call back number. The very knowledgeable and delightful Rashell quite promptly returned my call. She so politely and patiently answered my numerous questions regarding measurements, color tones & shading, texture and more. When you are dealing with individually hand-​crafted art glass pieces there can be several degrees of color and pattern variations for the same item. Rashell’s assistance was invaluable to my final selection. It’s so nice to be able to call a store and have someone personally and carefully inspect, hand pick and send a particular item to you. Can’t wait to receive and display it. I know I’ll love it.
Thank you Rashell.

Beautiful art glass, functional glass and jewelry from more than 100 different glass artists. It is kind of nice to go into a store in Kauai that scream «you are in Kauai» for a change.
The prices are commensurate for being In a tourist area. Some of the larger art glass pieces run in the neighbourhood of $ 5k but most are a lot more affordable.
I particularly enjoyed their dichroic glass jewelry, some of which is glow-​in-​the-​dark. I guess that is the kind of jewelry you wear when you dine at restaurants like this
?
A lot of their display space was filled with Pandora jewelry, that cultish charm bracelet manufacturer, which didn’t really fit in with the theme of the store.

Beautiful store with lovely glass art. My wife enjoyed checking out the Pandora glass beads. I was really impressed by the creativity and beauty of the glass creations. A nice distraction in the heart of old town Kapaa.

I feel like such a cheeseball saying so, but we found this place after seeing them advertised in the Hawaiian Airlines magazine.
I’m a huge fan of glass art, and this place was like a candy store! Over 150 glass artists represented– and the owners are so friendly and helpful– without being pushy.
Thought I was just going to browse and ogle, but ended up walking away with a beautiful dichroic glass necklace.
There are pieces at any price point from $ 20 to $ 5,000. A great place to get a unique souvenir of your trip to Kauai. Would have spent more time here had I not been on my way to the airport but I could easily see spending an hour or two just looking at all the beautiful pieces they have on display.

This store has some incredible blown glass artwork. Ended up buying an anniversary gift for my wife here and she loves it. There are a bunch of items I would love to have, but unfortnately, out of my price range, but well worth stopping by to see some amazing stuff.

A few beautiful works of glass, but mostly an ultra-​expensive «art» boutique. A few smaller pieces were nice, but the majority of the shop resembles an art exhibition more than a business. The prices were absolutely insane for the moderate level of detail and craftsmanship put into each piece.
SOLD signs are placed on pieces that are supposedly sold. Visited the place twice (almost a full week apart) and saw the same pieces on display in the same spots with the SOLD signs moved around. I’m not sure if their stock was simply replenished (which would indicate that the pieces were commercially manufactured rather than the suggested artist-​created). It seemed too coincidental and more like a sales tactic to suggest demand for the pieces.
Service is as expected for the price level — wear a Rolex and you’ll get great service, but they ignored most of the people who walk in other than the cursory hello.

We always visit this store whenever we’re in Kauai. It started out small in 1994 and every time we go there are new glass artists whose works are being exhibited. The quality is excellent and the prices range from surprisingly reasonable to OMIGOD-that’s-gorgeous-too-bad-I-can’t-afford-it! I’ve bought a few pieces over the years but mostly I just admire and treat it like the gallery it is.
