About the Item

This statement necklace from the 1970s features a bold, ocean-inspired design with layered strands of natural white shell beads and large mother-of-pearl drop pendants. Five polished, iridescent shell pieces fan out across the neckline, reflecting light with a lustrous shimmer and creating a dramatic bib silhouette. The necklace is composed of multiple strands of irregular chip and seed shell beads, creating a richly textured look that feels both natural and sculptural. Secured with a classic barrel clasp, this piece embodies coastal glam with a vintage twist. Perfect for resort wear, summer styling, or as a standout accessory to minimalist ensembles, this necklace offers both movement and shine while celebrating organic materials. Period: 1970s Style: Boho / Coastal / Statement Materials: Mother-of-pearl shell, natural shell beads, metal clasp Closure: Barrel screw clasp Condition: Excellent vintage condition with natural variations to the shell
