Love Letters in the Sand Shell Necklace

Overall Length: 25″

An embrace of glorious conus shells culminating in three carved jade focal beads and an exquisite intricately hand carved century old open work ivory pendant depicting the sacred spirit animal-the dragon. The oldest form of adornment, shells also are important symbols of fertility, birth, death and resurrection. The sacred dragon is a good luck symbol of protection and the most important creature in Chinese symbology. A life guide in Chinese culture, the dragon challenges the wearer to overcome obstacles and encourages self-healing.
