Wampum Shell 14mm Round Bead - 15-16 Inch Renewal and often distinctive colors thatWampum is made from one of the hardest and most beautiful shells in the world: the Northern Quahog, a clam found along the New England coast. The white and purple layers of the shell create beautiful patterns. Only a small percentage of Wampum shells have deep layers of purple and are thick enough to make beads.
