Handmade shell necklace from the Philippines

A bold, hand-worked shell necklace from the Philippines, made from large, polished natural shells with all their beautiful irregular lines and markings. It has a real, satisfying weight to it, the kind you feel immediately when you lift it, giving the piece a grounded, sculptural presence.

Strung on thick, braided rope, the contrast between the soft fibre and the cool, heavy shells brings that raw, coastal craftsmanship to life. Earthy, statement-making, and full of character.
