How many of you know that the shells of spiny oysters/thorny oysters are used in jewelry!? Ranging in color from orange to dark purple (when they live deeper), these mollusks closely related to scallops (not actually oysters) live in the tropical and subtropical waters of the Americas. Pretty cool. And that’s why the back is white…cuz it’s a shell.
This lightweight pendant is set in sterling silver and hangs 3/4” from an 18” sterling silver chain.
