This is a very rare version of an African shell amulet necklace - known generically in Africa as a gri gri. These can be worn by both genders for protection, as well as personal adornment. The leather is made from goatskin. The shells are conus shells, aka cone shells. Please see the photo of two full cone shells we have in our inventory. We have two variations: a triple shell pendant necklace on a thin black leather cord and a multiple shell choker necklace on a braided black leather cord.

The multiple shell necklace circumference is 16 1/2" (42 cm). The triple shell pendant necklace circumference is just under 18" (46 cm)
