Hey. Found this at the swap meet last week for $60. I have never seen anything like it so I decided to buy it. Solid sterling silver with what looks to be like a shell with mother of pearl inlay, and then orange coral as well. Does anyone have any additional insight on the piece? I'm having a hard time finding anything on it and have no idea how to list it on eBay. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Very handsome and well made piece. I don't think it's MOP inlay, I think the shell's outer covering is removed to expose the mop/nacre interior... so it shows by subtraction, rather than addition. Love the linkage style of the chain. No markings anywhere?
