Little African Seashell Necklace

African Seashell Necklace Seashell from Africa with Stones

 

    $20.00

This necklace features a Cypraea sea shell (couldn’t determine which in particular), trapped in a net  and decorated with tiny pieces of amber, carnelian and gold sand stone, hanging on a faux leather cord. I got this shell in an exchange with an artisan from Bahia, who told me that it comes from the coast of Africa but he didn’t know what area in particular. I have researched but haven’t been able to find out yet. If you happen to know please send me an email with the info ok!

To clasp the necklace insert the knot in the opening.  The shell can be washed with gentle soap and a soft brush.
