This is a lovely and unique necklace with its delicacy and silvery shimmer. The textured fine silver shell hangs from a wave of hammered 18-gauge silver wire, which in turn is attached to an organic-style pendant slide made only by Alone Star. All shells are handmade individually by pressing silver clay into real shells, then inverting to create a slightly domed form. The shell is about 0.5" wide. We use flat cable chain for its sparkle: necklace is 18" long and finished with a sterling lobster clasp. Looks lovely with a v-neck collar.
