These beautiful Dwarf Janthina Earrings are made from Sterling Silver handcrafted by Mark Sokolich.
These earrings are from "He Sales Sea Shells" range, which is made in Sterling Silver and 9ct Yellow Gold from shells with no live organisms and the original shell used in the moulds were returned to the beach after the use. These shells were all collected from Auckland's west coast beaches and the Manukau harbour area.
