White shell corsage pin
Description
Made from seashells at Tule Lake Relocation Center. Tule Lake Relocation Center and Topaz Relocation Center were on or near shell beds. When the surface supply of good shells was eventually exhausted, the internees dug for them in beds from one to four feet below the ground. After gathering, sifting, and sorting, the shells would be washed and bleached in a weak chlorine solution, then assembled and arranged into countless compositions. Shells would sometimes be carried from one camp to another, especially when internees were transferred to another camp.
