Found on eBAY: USA - maireener shells

Clearly the only thing that is credible about this necklace is that it is described as having been painted. It may be of 'Tasmanian origin' but that is unlikely and almost certainly it is not of Tasmanian Aboriginal cultural production – contemporary or vintage. The shells may well have originated in Tasmania but that does not by itself imply Aboriginal cultural production.
