This oval tan shell ornament features a recessed center filled with dark, translucent amber resin. Embedded within the resin are three glass beads arranged like a face: two red circles with white centers sit side-by-side above a single white bead. Shimmering flakes are suspended throughout the resin. A vertical crack splits the top center of the shell, which is centered against a smooth, gray background.
