Handmade Suede Choker Necklace with Dangling Conus Shells

About the Item

This Bohemian style choker necklace is inspired by Oceanic tribal jewelry. Numerous conus shell discs hang from a wide, brown and green suede band that ties in the back. There is also a fabulous tangle of heavy threads. Conus shells were highly valued and used as currency. This is a wonderful modern interpretation of a traditional neckpiece. The length of the necklace is 29.25". This includes, of course, the part that ties, so the wearable length varies. The height of the necklace, including the strings, is 7.5". The depth varies depending on how the discs fall. Please contact us if you have any questions.
