Cowrie Shell & Bone Half-Moon Drop Earrings

Ancient symbol, modern edge. These statement drop earrings pair a polished cowrie shell — long revered across African cultures as a symbol of prosperity and femininity — with a hand-carved cow bone half-moon pendant, all wrapped in intricate brass wire coils.

The cool grey of the bone, the luminous white of the cowrie, and the warm gold of the brass wire come together in a piece that is both deeply rooted and effortlessly wearable. Handcrafted by artisans in Kenya, each pair is one of a kind.
