Granulated Cowrie Shell & Turquoise Necklace
One of one. You'll receive the exact piece shown; ships in 1–3 business days.
Gift-wrapped, always. Every piece arrives in a Salt & Water Co. box or pouch with a thank-you card.
A granulated cowrie, my favorite kind of cowrie, with its natural texture and warm sandy tones, among genuine turquoise and gold accents. Granulated cowries are endemic to Hawaiʻi, found nowhere else in the world.
Turquoise is often associated with protection, balance and inner calm, for a playful, coastal and timeless piece.

Made for your everyday, in and out of the water. Rinse in fresh water after the ocean. Pearl & shell care
Handcrafted on the North Shore of Oʻahu.
Rinse with fresh water after the ocean or a workout, and pat dry. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft brush; a polishing cloth brings back the shine on metal. Store pieces dry and separate so they don’t scratch.
Shipping is calculated at checkout. In the US, choose USPS Priority Mail (usually 2–5 business days from Hawaiʻi), Priority Mail Express, or Ground Advantage, the lowest price, but allow 2–3 weeks from Hawaiʻi.
I also ship to Canada, the UK, the EU, Switzerland, Australia, New Zealand, Japan and French Polynesia.
Complimentary pickup near Sunset Beach on the North Shore of Oʻahu, by appointment: choose pickup at checkout and I’ll be in touch to arrange a time.
Ready-to-ship pieces ship in 1–3 business days; made-to-order pieces in 1–3 weeks (up to 6 for intricate pieces like bezel work).
All sales are final. Free repairs for manufacturing defects within 15 days.
Cowrie shell
Cowries are known for their vibrant colors and glossy finish, and Hawaiʻi is home to many kinds found nowhere else, from common to extremely rare. A half cowrie shows off the shell's distinctive lips and lies beautifully flat against the skin.
