Tahitian Lace Medallion Lei

Intricate shell work creates a lace effect around the edge of this medallion. A pairing of exquisite small cats paw cowrie and snake head cowrie, it’s got an almost delicate feel to it. Would look wonderful with any kind of beach clothing, great for festival wear, a luau, hula, or an ocean wedding.   True vintage, strung on early fishing line, 30’s or 40’s, in wonderful condition with no notable flaws found. When held to the nose I can catch the faintest scent of tobacco from long ago.   This was obtained separately from the other Tahitian and Polynesian leis currently being listed in the shop, I do not know much about it, but I’ve never seen another lei in this pattern and I’ve handled a lot of these.  This listing is only for the featured lei, if you’d like to see it paired with something else in the shop and I’ll take photos for you.   Stored in a smoke free home, will be sent with great care. Questions, bundles and offers are always welcome! Thank you for stopping by my Posh shop :)
