The magnificent Queen Conch, strombus gigas, has long been considered a symbol of good luck by sailors and travelers. So indestructible is this beautiful shell that, no matter how it is tossed and uprooted by the stormy sea, it always returns home to graze placidly in the seagrass shallows from whence it came. As such, the conch has become not only a symbol of strength and endurance

against the sea, but against all the storms of life.

Local jewelry craftsman, Whitfield Jack, has created his exquisitely designed Key West Conch as a tribute to this Island and to all who visit it. He hopes that the Legend of the Conch will capture you with its spell and bring you back someday.
