Description

The listing, Handmade, doubled, Conch/Cowrie shell necklace. has ended.

Just look at a cowrie shell and you can guess why it has traditionally been used as a symbol of fertility. Shaped like labia, small cowries were sewn into the hems of Indian women’s dresses to encourage love and fertility. This necklace is beautiful and "beachy". Doubled shells are sewn together in a flower shape. Brown ceramic beads and wooden beads around the necklace.
