sterling silver wampum shell necklace

Sterling silver necklace. The wampum is not perfectly smooth as it appears to have been a piece someone may have picked up at the beach and shaped into a rectangle, but left the natural finish.

The silver is scratched from wear and storage, as is typical with vintage jewelry. This jewelry may also have tarnishing and patina that may not come off when polished. 

Chain is 20"

Wampum measures 1 1/2" long by 5/8" wide
