Honey Cowrie Shell Explorer Specimen in Resin

Sailors used to think cowrie shells were lucky. Sailors also thought the ocean was full of monsters, so their instincts were pretty solid.

A genuine honey cowrie shell set in clear resin, the kind of object that belongs on the desk of someone who reads about deep sea anomalies for fun. Cowries have been currency, amulets, and grave goods across cultures for thousands of years, which gives this little block of resin considerably more history than most things you could buy for under fifteen dollars. The dark alternative crowd has always had a thing for the natural world's stranger output, shells included, and this sits perfectly alongside crystals, bones, and other beautiful evidence that nature is deeply weird.

Contains a genuine honey cowrie shell in clear resin, approximately 40x40mm. Sourced through Our Earth Life.
