An authentic antique shell choker/ collar, constructed in multiple rows of naturally iridescent spiral shells, intricately mounted with faceted cut steel beads.
This sits at 36cm but I have added a ribbon tie to make this smaller. The ribbon extension allows for a more precise fit; however, I am able to tailor the length to your exact neck measurement upon request, without delay.
A rare and evocative piece.
Length: Adjustable from 30cm to 36cm
Closure: Original snap fastening, with an additional black ribbon tie for adjustability
Materials: Natural shells, cut steel beads, velvet foundation
Period: Antique (19th century)
Condition: Good antique condition, with expected signs of age and patina consistent with its period.
