Netted Whelks are a beautiful petite shell with a graceful elongated spiral shape. It is covered in an intricate pattern resembling a fine net or latticework with ridges and grooves along its length. When crafting my pieces I only use shells I have found myself empty on the tideline as it is the only way I can be sure of their origin and ensure no animal has died just for its shell. After working for many years in marine conservation I am acutely aware of the damage being done to our environment and ecosystems by the global trade in wildlife. This experience gives me a unique perspective and drives my dedication to creating environmentally friendly jewellery. Increasing my sustainability and encouraging eco-conscious consumerism is at the heart of everything I do.
I have one size of Netted Whelk which measures ~10mm in length and is solid recycled sterling silver ensuring quality and durability. It is available as a charm only to add to your own chain or add on a chain in your choice of length from the options. Each piece of my jewellery comes in recycled/recyclable eco-friendly packaging. A complimentary non-toxic chemical free polishing cloth is also enclosed, I recommend using this regularly to maintain the silvers high-polished shine.
My silver Netted Whelks are perfect for those who value sustainability and elegance, combining natures beauty with eco-friendly craftsmanship. Order now to add this beautiful Cornish shell to your collection. (Also available in gold).
