Vintage Gold Trimmed Genuine Quahog Shell Pendant Deep Lavender Natural Banding Beach Jewelry

This one is a genuine quahog shell in deeper lavender and violet tones, with the same natural concentric growth rings as its lighter colored counterpart but a richer, moodier palette. This is the deep purple banding quahog shells are best known for, the same coloring historically prized for purple wampum. It is finished with a gold dipped trim along the edge and a simple gold jump ring bail.

Like the softer pink version, this coloring is entirely natural to the shell itself, not dyed or treated, and every piece carries its own slightly different pattern.

Excellent vintage condition, gold trim intact with no chipping, bail secure. Comes with a cord necklace in your choice of color.

Condition: Excellent vintage condition, gold trim intact, no chipping, bail secure.
