Pearl snail Shell neckless

Manufacturing process

The neckless makers, or jewelry artists gather the shells in the early morning. They carefully drill wholes in the shells and then weave the neckless together. The last process takes over two hours.

History

The reason that there is no price for these shell neckless, is because the Sirens do not have any form of currency. The shell neckless can be worn by women and men, and is part of the Siren's every day's clothing.

Significance

The neckless are pretty common sight inside the underwater city Aupunimalalo. Both men and women are wearing them. Men's are maybe more modest, but not always.

The Pearl snail

The pearl snail is a small animal, that needs an outer shell that protects them against predators. Every year they leave their old one behind and grow a new and bigger one.
This little animal, spends its whole life 5 to 6 years to grow a new shell and to procreate. After those 5 to 6 years they pass away leaving again their shell behind.
