Crescent shell of iridescent smokey sable colour with undertones of green and russet, handcut to the classic crescent form, capped in Silver handcrafted and hand-tooled, with a fine Sterling Silver “cable” chain.
The Silver “cable” chain is 44cms length. When the piece is hung in balance from a nail, the distance from nail to mid-top of the shell is 27cms; it will not be sitting up close to the neck.
At widest the handcut shell is 23mm, and there is 68mm between the ring-tops of the caps.

15% reduced, and a little more, to $70, for a lovely handcut shell crescent pendant.

Crescent Shell. Shell has been cut and used in ornamentation since time immemorial, for though not strong in the way a rock or crystal is, shell has a fine natural beauty and is also relatively easy to fashion into shapes. The crescent shape of the above Crescent Shell is an ancient ornamental form, enhanced by the natural curve of the shell.
This Crescent Shell pendant was handcut in Bali, and the finely chased Silver end cappings handcrafted specifically for it, in the mid-1980s. The 44cms Silver cable chain is new.
