    Description

    Up for sale from my mother's estate is this very long Cowrie shell necklace purchased by my parents on their Hawaiian trip. Their famous photo of them together in their Hawaiian garb shows my father wearing the necklace. The necklace is a full 18" drop. Just place it over your head, no clasp.  Each grouped station of shells has 6 tiny cowrie shells together. Then 2 tiny conch shells and that repeats all along the length of the necklace.  Its very substantial necklace.  The shells are shiny with tones of beige and flesh to pink tones.  My opinion is the shells are in excellent condition considering the advanced age of the piece.
