Shell inlay necklace

Is this your project? Can you share instructions or a pattern with the Craftsy community?

Difficulty:

Category: Jewelry

Type of item: Accessory

For: Women

Style: Ethnic, Eco-Friendly, Funky, Whimsical, Mod, Casual, Hipster


Materials

Shard of found seashell, coin pearl, freshwater pearl, brass sheet metal, brass rod, brass tube, brass wire.

What was your inspiration?

I was stunned by a necklace by Lauren Markely published in "500 silver jewelry designs." When I found this broken bit from the inside of a seashell at the beach, I knew there had to be a way to incorporate it in a similar design. The shell piece is beautifully mottled with what looks like a pearl jutting out from near the middle.

What are you most proud of?

I hope I was able to showcase the beauty of the shell.
