Art discs made of re-used boats
Seashell craft is a major art form of Goa. Shells of various sizes, shapes and shades are used in the making of ornaments like necklaces, rings, bracelets and brooches. The artisans apply their art on the simple looking seashells, converting them into extraordinary pieces of work. The products act as wonderful reminders of Goan culture and craft.
