All the sea shell beads in here handmade by shell-craftmen at Kenjeran Beach in Surabaya, East Java. The shells came from fish market near the beach. Mostly are already waste, cause they need the meat and leave the shell on the garbage. They washed it, cut it using very sharp knife or grindstone, polish them with paper pads, cut the wood one by one, match with the shell, and then veneer it for the last touch. At the bottom of the shells, we reuse wood as a base and gave double hole on the right and left side. The talented shell-craftmen can carve neatly on top of shells. From very simple cut to awesome carve ready for listing tonight. Are you ready enough for them? These gorgeous sea shell beads will be available at Etsy too. And check on our FB shop here.
