World’s Most Beautiful Scallop Shell Necklace – Silver

The World’s Prettiest Scallop Shell Necklace

It really is the prettiest. We’ve been looking at scallop shells for 40 years. Scallops in nature come in many subtle variations, some have “wings” at the top, some have textured patterning, some have shapes that simply differ…good, better, best, we looked! Some we liked a little, some we liked a lot. Then one day we found it, a fine jewelry scallop- nature’s most intriguing and perfect form, the radiant rays echoing out like a new day sun. When we saw this mystical scallop we simply knew. This new scallop was perfect. We’ve made a small, medium, and large. We make it in silver, we make it in gold. Either precious metal is awesome for different reasons. Of the three sizes of necklaces, medium is best in silver or gold.

First is the silver medium scallop necklace. Silver is an interesting metal, precious and rare. It possesses a property that allows the metal to more easily oxidize, which means silver and oxygen combine and darken down to almost black. Silver does this naturally and the recessed spaces between the radiant ribs stay dark, where the high points of the ribs stay bright polished silver. This creates a dramatic contrast of light and dark…Highly desirable because when you wear this necklace this contrast dramatizes the pattern. Gold can almost do this, but it takes time to create a similar visual effect. Silver does it naturally, easily.

When you wear this necklace (again, we suggest medium, unless of course you’re from Texas). It’s a simple statement of nature’s most perfect geometric pattern. Medium is perfect – not too large, not too small. On an 18 inch chain it sits two inches from your heart. The look is fabulous. If you’re very petite, consider the small.

Second, there is a gold version of this necklace. Click here to see our Scallop Shell necklace in gold.

Yes, you can go larger or smaller. We recommend the medium size as the perfect look for 90% of all women.

World’s Prettiest Shaped Scallop Shell

I go to the shore many summer mornings to welcome dawn and sunrise. I could say it is always the same. In truth though, it’s different every morning. Obviously, the tides change daily. Sunrise and its magic are the air, the sky, and temperatures influencing the dawn – and a true reason to get up early to see what will happen in the sky at the edge, as the earth turns. Fog, haze, crisp clear air, are all different. The sky and its colors are different. On the ocean’s edge we can see 25, 50, 100 miles out to the rising sun. Toss in a few streaky clouds and guaranteed: it’s always different.

Our scallop shell with its radiant rays flowing out from a common point, is one of the prettiest forms of nature. We make this in a small, medium*, and a large size. Worn as a necklace I think, as a jeweler, the scallop shell is the prettiest natural form ever. For she who wears it, it’s presence simply glows. We guarantee it.
