Spiralite Shell Fairy

Spiralite is an incredible, rare gemstone formed from crystallized shell fossils, featuring distinct spiral patterns that have been preserved over millions of years. This unique gemstone provides a natural record of ancient marine life, with its delicate, swirling structures and natural crystallization offering a stunning glimpse into Earth's geological past. In contrast, the wings come from the recent brood of 17-year periodical cicadas. Millions of these cicadas emerged this season, and their wings have been carefully collected and preserved after the cicadas have lived out their full natural life cycle. The combination of these ancient and modern life forms symbolizes the ever-changing yet timeless essence of nature. This piece measures about 2.5 inches across and comes on a 20-inch copper plated chain with a 2-inch extender. If you would prefer a different length of chain or leather cord, please include a note at checkout.  All electroformed jewelry includes a copper care sheet as
