Murex Shell Necklace

This piece starts with a gold electroplated Murex shell slice, about 3 inches across, with a natural spiral pattern that’s completely its own. Around it are 3mm faceted Larimar beads, a stone connected to Atlantean energy and the element of water. Larimar is known as a stone of tranquility, said to soothe the nervous system, calm an overactive mind, and open the throat chakra for clearer, more honest communication. People who work with crystal energy often reach for it to release old emotional blockages and invite in a sense of calm. Mixed in with the Larimar are 3–4mm freshwater pearls, long associated with purity, wisdom, and a soft, nurturing feminine energy tied to the moon and emotional balance. Pearls are often worn as a gentle protective talisman, said to encourage integrity and self trust. The 3mm gold fill running through adds a bit of warmth and grounding, balancing out the cooler, watery feel of the Larimar and shell. Your necklace will look similar but not exact, since each shell has its own size, shape, and character, shaped entirely by the sea before it ever reached me. It comes in a standard 15 inch length with a 3 inch extender for some flexibility, but I’m happy to customize the length to fit you exactly, just let me know what you have in mind.
