Sea Shells!

In 1984, New Orleans hosted the Louisiana World Exposition with the theme “The World of Rivers: Fresh Water as a Source of Life.” This theme spoke to New Orleans jewelry artist Mignon Faget, who had already created many jewelry designs that featured Oysters, Crabs, Shrimp and other bounties of our magnificent Mississippi River and Delta. The exposition became a catalyst for further artistic exploration.

This sterling silver shell is 1 1/4" on a 8" silver chain.
