Dentalium shells are long, tubular shells that are found along the Pacific coast of North America. They have been highly valued by Indigenous peoples for their beauty and rarity. Traditionally, dentalium shells were used in jewelry, such as necklaces and earrings, as well as in ceremonial regalia.
In modern times, dentalium shells are still used in traditional Indigenous jewelry, often combined with other materials such as beads, leather, and feathers. However, contemporary designers and artists have also found new and creative ways to incorporate dentalium shells into their work. For example, dentalium shells may be used in mixed media art pieces, sculptures, and even clothing and accessories.
The enduring popularity of dentalium shells among Indigenous peoples speaks to their cultural significance and the deep connection to the land and traditions. By continuing to use dentalium shells in both traditional and modern ways, Indigenous artists and craftspeople are able to honor their heritage while also expressing their creativity and innovation.
