Ten Thousand Villages Global Fair Trade Gifts Moon Phase Capiz Shell Necklace Handcrafted In Philippines

The balance of cool silver and blue tones in the Moon Phase Necklace will have you looking lunar. (Hopefully, no one starts howling at youà) This necklace from the Philippines features capiz, the thin shell of a marine mollusk. First artisans wash and soak shells. After the shells have dried, they are cut into shapes, dyed and edged with metal wire. A finishing coat of varnish completes this labor-intensive process. Before glass windows became available in the Philippines, capiz was used for windows in houses! A beautiful Global Fair Trade gift.
