Crown of the Current Ear Cuff – Left Ear

Long before jewelry was a fashion statement, it was a language. Across the African continent, adornments like the Crown of the Current Ear Cuff spoke of identity, wealth, beauty, and spiritual protection. The cowrie shell, at the heart of this piece, was once so valuable it served as currency in trade routes stretching from the Indian Ocean to the heart of West Africa. Beyond its worth in gold, the cowrie was revered as a symbol of the ocean’s life-giving power and a guardian of feminine energy.

Handcrafted in Kenya by skilled brass artisans, each shell is carefully wrapped and positioned to fan elegantly around the ear — a crest of the ocean that commands attention.

Wearing the Crown of the Current is like wearing the tide — steady, strong, and timeless, connecting you to centuries of women who adorned themselves not just to be seen, but to be remembered.

Sometimes all you need is a little splash of color in your life.
