I discovered this sweet little shell on the beach in Valencia, when travelling to Spain at the beginning of the summer. I was beach combing and stumbled upon this cutie amidst several other different shaped shells and tiny rocks. I love the detail and texture in the natural made material. I decided to create a mold and cast these in sterling silver and brass. They’re such a delightful symbol of summertime, beach combing, and rest!
Shells are rich in symbolism, often representing protection, fertility, and a connection to the ocean. They are generally associated with feminine energy, abundance, and spirituality. They can also symbolize resilience and the ability to overcome obstacles as they are found in the ocean, which is a powerful force of nature!
Shell jewelry holds deep cultural and historical significance, particularly in coastal communities and those with strong ties to the ocean. For example, in some cultures wearing shell jewelry is believed to bring good fortune, ward off evil, and connect you to the sea!
A mold is made of the orignal shell, that is then used to cast the shells in metal. These studs have sterling silver posts. Approximately 0.5 x 0.5 inches.
