1970s Vintage Coconut Shell & Chiton Bib Necklace, Organic Eco Jewelry 18"

Carry a piece of earth and sea with you—this vintage necklace is a soulful celebration of nature’s artistry and sustainable style. Handcrafted in the 1970s or earlier, it flaunts chunky, curved tiles of richly grained, highly polished coconut shell, strung in a bold collar bib design. At center, a mesmerizing oval chiton shell—pale teal with iridescent wave-like bands—anchors the piece, glowing with the stories of ancient tides.

At 18 inches, this striking mid-century treasure is comfortable for daily wear yet dramatic enough for gallery openings, nature retreats, or moonlit beach strolls. Weighing a mere 1.5 ounces, it’s a statement that feels as light as an island breeze.

Perfect for vintage jewelry collectors, eco-conscious souls, Bohemian goddesses, and anyone who yearns for a hint of the wild and wonderful in their wardrobe. Each natural mark and texture tells a singular story—no two are exactly alike.
