6mm Purple Wampum Quahog Heishi Eastern Native American Beaded Choker Necklace

This stunning purple wampum quahog shell necklace is crafted using 6mm all natural AAA grade high luster heishi shell beads and sterling silver findings. The wampum beads display a clean pure violet / plum purple color with white highlights. This necklace displays beautifully by itself or can be layered with your other necklaces for a striking look. The Eastern Native American inspired design is a carefully crafted blend of materials and color that will add personality to your casual or formal dress.

Not dyed, treated or color enhanced. Photos taken outside in natural lighting and in a light box. No filters or color enhancements are added to the photos. The necklace strung with strong 49 micro woven stainless steel beading wire with nylon coating.

I use only the finest brightly polished sterling silver findings. A large clasp that is easy to hold and open completes this necklace. I offer this in lengths; choker 14" - 28". Please select your size and finish from the drop down menu.

A 2 necklace extender is included, so you can adjust the necklace and wear it at different lengths. Please message me if you would like the necklace without the extender. Unisex styling, suitable for a man or woman and would make a perfect gift! A little history about wampum for you. Traditional Wampum are handmade shell beads highly valued and traded by Eastern North American Indians, long before the first Europeans arrived.

Wampum is an extremely hard and beautiful shell used for Native American Jewelry and trade currency throughout the eastern seaboard. The white and purple layers of the shell create beautiful patterns with every piece displaying unique and natural beauty. This necklace is completely handmade and constructed in my studio.
