This wonderful Cowrie and Nassa Shell Necklace from the Southern Highlands of Papua New Guinea. Shells in general were highly valued as traditional wealth by the people The The cut Cowrie and Nassa Shells were used as an ornament during traditional ceremonies, but they were also used as a traditional currency and often used as bridal dowries paid by a young mans family. The shell necklace is a treasured possession. This would be a wonderful addition to your home or collection.
