Long Abalone Necklace

For centuries, Native Americans and other American indigenous groups have used iridescent abalone shells in jewelry, healing processes, and spiritual cleansing. The striking color of the abalone shell is a result of thousands of microscopic tiles and surface grooves that reflect and refract light in various hues.

This gorgeous abalone necklace features thirteen unique cabochon pieces of abalone that shimmer brilliantly even with the slightest movement. The dramatic length of the necklace makes this a statement piece that pairs well with both formal and casual wear in all colors. Subtle milgrain beading and uniform half-moons comprise each brass setting, keeping all the polished pieces firmly in place.

Dimensions: This necklace is 20" long and includes a 3" extender.

The rich greens, blues and glowing violet tones of abalone change in intensity in different kinds of light.

It's like wearing the aurora borealis on your neck!
