Santo Domingo Heishi Shell Necklace (Color Lines)

Heishi beads have been made since ancient times and were hand-carved from various shells, stones, and mineral rocks. The beads continue to be highly treasured, incorporated into jewelry and adornment, and passed down and cherished. Heishi are typically small disc-shaped beads, but these are larger.
