Stainless Steel Lobster Necklace

Description

This lobster necklace is made of gold-plated Stainless Steel and comes with a black, original longline string, with nautical knots holding the lobster in place. It is adjustable in length and resembles the Green Spiny Lobster.

The Green Spiny Lobster (Panulirus gracilis) is endemic to the Eastern Pacific and commonly found from Mexico to Peru. It provides high economic value to coastal fishing communities, as it represents a highly-priced dish in all restaurants worldwide.

However, lobsters are critical to the maintenance of coastal marine ecosystems, as they transfer energy between primary producers and consumers to apex predators, which means that they feed on the smallest organisms, such as algae, and invertebrates and are eaten by the largest species, such as sharks and killer whales.

In the wild, lobsters can achieve astonishing ages of up to 50 years, and their longevity is assumed to be limited by the energy they require to mold their exoskeleton.

By purchasing this spiny lobster necklace, you can choose to support any of Equipo Tora Carey’s conservation projects, and as we grow, hopefully, the introduction of new projects on other key species, including this lobster.
