eBAY has proven to be a useful tool in gaining some kind of perspective on the the ways this kind of necklace is understood and imagined. Below there are links to shell necklaces found on eBay and other online auctions. The links below date from August 30, 2009 until Jan 2010. The searching has not been consistent and is a random sample. A more protracted Internet search is likely to uncover more examples.
