The spiral interior is fully visible from the front, with warm oxidation settled into the curves and deep shadow where the shell narrows. The flared outer lip curves away from the body exactly as it does on a real conch, and the whole form is three dimensional rather than flat cast. This is not a shell silhouette. It is a shell.

TN-49 is a registered Taxco silversmith mark stamped on the bail, with Mexico 925 confirming the silver. At over two inches this wears as a genuine statement pendant. Comes with your choice of cord necklace color.

Condition: Estate excellent. Bail is solid and secure. Natural sterling patina with beautiful oxidation in the shell's recessed areas. No damage or repairs.
