This vintage (unused) piece of jewelry could be an anklet, plus-size bracelet or choker for a small neck. It is 10" long. I strung it on light wire with a barrel clasp, so there should be little chance of this ever breaking and losing the beads. It is made of shell fetishes in the shape of bears, with two sterling silver beads between each.

Back in the 70's I was in college and exploring my Indian (Native American for you pc folks) heritage (I've since learned my roots are Tuscaroran...further east than I thought given my Midwest location). During that time I was making a lot of jewelry with that type of cultural look, though since I was living in the mountains of the West at the time, much of it had more of a New Mexico/Arizona look.

I've kept this piece in my inventory all these years, but it is time to start letting go of the emotional attachment to some of these pieces, and let them move on to someone who will actually use and appreciate them.

As always, buy more than one item from my shop and combine the shipping. I don't make a profit on shipping like some sellers do. However,  shipping calculators don't do well with combined shipments, so you may get a partial shipping refund after you've paid.

Keep in mind that many of my items are one-of-a-kind, and I have local customers looking at them. If you buy something that has just sold locally and wasn't yet been removed, the order will be cancelled and your full payment returned to you, unless I have a similar item in stock. You can always contact me before your purchase to confirm the item is still available.
