Vintage 90s Surfer Style Olive Shell & Glass Bead Necklace - Hippie Coastal Beach Aesthetic

This authentic vintage necklace captures the relaxed and free-spirited vibe of a classic 1990s beach vacation. The design features a strand of polished olive shells, which are naturally patterned with distinctive brown and cream zigzag markings that make each bead unique. These natural shell elements are interspersed with small cobalt blue and black glass seed beads that add a subtle pop of color and contrast against the warm neutral tones of the shells.

The necklace dates back to the late 1980s or 1990s, an era defined by the popularity of natural materials and surf-inspired accessories. It is finished with a traditional screw-barrel clasp, a hardware style commonly used in jewelry from this period that provides a secure closure. The piece sits relatively high on the neck, offering a style that works well as a standalone choker or layered with other chains for a more eclectic look.

This pre-owned piece is in good vintage condition and retains the genuine charm of handmade coastal jewelry from the late 20th century. It evokes memories of seaside boardwalks and summer holidays, making it a perfect accessory for anyone looking to add a touch of retro nostalgia or organic texture to their daily wardrobe.
