Cast from the real thing! These were hand collected by myself from the seaside. For as long as I've been alive, the ocean has held deep significance and brought healing, guidance and peace to my soul. I have made ocean pieces for as many years as I have been metal smithing, and hope that profound connection is imbued into the metal and carried upon it deep care and magic from my heart to yours.
These particular seashells are known as Lion Paw shells. They are very thick! And substantial pieces. Their texture is amazing, including even a freckling of tiny little holes, with every bit of their form captured in solid sterling silver.
They measure approx 44mm x 33mm including bail and weigh approx .60 ounces. They are solid sterling silver and very substantial!
These do come with a chain! The exact sterling silver 20" chain as shown above. These can be given a dark patina, or kept bright and shiny.
