eBAY SELLER: kathyscorner22 Thomaston, Maine, United States

THIS ITEM: VINTAGE SEASHELL & SEED NECKLACE

  • SPECIFICS: Necklace is strung with seashells and some sort of seeds, typical of the Pacific Islands. Hippy love beads that we saw in the '60s... Nicely made!
  • CIRCA: 1960 - 1970
  • DIMENSIONS: approx 35" (No clasp, so couldn't lay it out to get precise measurement)
  • CONDITION: VERY GOOD
  • NOTE: The seeds in this piece seem to be of a similar kind to those being found in Tasmania and described as "apple seeds" but are clearly something else.
