I'm really pleased with these pendants. Loving Kaz's fab encased murrini, a la Clare Scott; the pointy end, with the help of George Harper-East; and the barnacle stringer, due to Jolene Wolfe!
Discovered in 1835, Margate's Shell Grotto is an astonishing find; 21 metres of winding passages decorated with 4.6 million shells. The walls are covered in images of gods and goddesses, trees of life and patterns of whelks, mussels and oysters. Some think it is an ancient Pagan grotto, others that it is simply an ornate Regency folly; but with no definitive explanation or history, the Shell Grotto is Kent's greatest mystery.
Shell Centre, in London, is one of the two "central offices" of oil major Shell (the other is in The Hague). It comprises a skyscraper tower and three nine-storey wings (the "upstream building").
Shell Centre is located on the Belvedere Road in the London Borough of Lambeth. It is a prominent feature on the South Bank of the River Thames near County Hall, and now forms the backdrop to the London Eye. Shell Centre was constructed in 1961, to a design by Sir Howard Robertson, and the tower stands at 107 metres (351 ft) with 27 storeys (26 numbered and a mezzanine level) and extends three storeys below ground. The tower was the first London skyscraper to exceed the height of the Victoria Tower of the Palace of Westminster.

This is part of the old Shell Haven Oil Refinery, soon to be a port complex. The last remaining process unit (Bitumen) has been demolished.
The cotton I used is a remnant from Hancocks that I found out is also a second - misdyed in places so I worked around. I used it to test the fit of the shell. I only buy fabrics to test from them since most of what they carry are seconds or even worse and I'm saying this from experience.

I thought the oxide would be darker, but I am happy with this result. I used the shell molds to decorate a small plate-coming soon!
I found these at the Sanya Tourist Shell Market.
I'll have to upload the rest later. Perhaps 1 per day, seeing how slow uploading in China is.
I ripped these photos out of a MS magazine several months ago, and finally got around to photographing them. It's pretty amazing what people can do with shells.
