19th century or before, Africa
Don’t let the images fool you.  This shell glows white and is like glass from age and wear.  Our hand woven cord is a light taupe and very fine.  It’s a work of art.

One of a kind

Shell: 1.5″
Necklace length: 22.5″

A note about our woven cords.  We weave these by hand, every one of them; the work is labor intensive; like all Jewels’ work no two are exact, as each of us and how things should be.  When warmed to the skin the cord becomes more supple, conforms to the wearer, hangs just right; the necklace transforms more than just a necklace.  It becomes her or him.  This is the Slow Jewelry Movement.
