Item Description
Treat yourself or someone special to this lovely piece of "wearable history." This whale tail necklace comes to us from Beach Walk Studio where Joe & Jan Salamone make amazing wampum jewelry from authentic Cape Cod quahog shells.
Wampum was made from quahog shells by Wampanoag Indians and was used for both decoration and currency. "Purple wampum (suckauhock) held a higher status than white wampum (wompi)."
Each piece of jewelry is handcut and can take 4 to 5 weeks to create! This piece comes on a sterling silver chain. The whale tail pendant is 2" wide by 1.25" tall.
Make this unique piece of art and fine craftsmanship your own.
