Capiz Shell Strand

Add a touch of color and coastal charm to your space with our capiz strands from Balizen. They create a lovely environment in any setting and come with a metal ring at the top for easy hanging. These capiz supply come from a fishing village in Java, where shell artisans sustainably harvest the shells and shape them. All parts of the capiz (jingle oyster) are used; the meat is used for food, the main part of the shell for handicraft, and the shell waste for fertilizer. Only full-grown shells are picked from the kelp beds, where they grow, which provides more space and food source for the young ones to grow. 72” (182cm) long Made in Indonesia
