A vintage Bahamian conch shell — its natural swirl kept just as it was found — set with a quarter-carat diamond and hung from a herringbone leather braid closed with 14K gold beads. It's a piece of the sea worn at the throat, softened by leather that will patina to the color of driftwood over time.

Each conch is different, so no two of these will read exactly the same. The one that ships is the one Neely chose.
