Jewelry shell jewelries
Jewelry shell jewelries "I have never heard of any Golden Cowries being collected in New Caledonia but I know for sure that quite a few were collected on Mare and Lifou Islands (Loyalty Group) only 45 to 50 miles away from the northeastern Caledonian coast. But no native will part with one as they attach certain superstitious qualities to the shell. A friend of mine, a keen shell collector and second to the Governor, tried 'everything' to get one but failed. If he couldn't secure one, I don't know who could. The only shell I ever saw in Noumea was in the Museum and that one mysteriously disappeared about six months ago. "I am sorry I cannot give you any information on their feeding habits. All I know is they hide in dark crevices and caves along the barrier reefs, and I always thoroughly explore such places." Jewelry shell jewelries
