Lightweight Cowrie Shell Earrings, Made With Care
The Odyssey Importing Cowrie Earrings pair a beach favorite motif, the cowrie shell, with an easy, lightweight feel that makes them comfortable for all day wear. They are a fair trade piece, handmade by Oh and her mom in Thailand.
Materials and Details
- Lightweight and hypoallergenic
- Waxed cotton with brass beads and backs
- Will not tarnish or turn skin
- Handmade by Oh and her mom in Thailand
Because they are handmade, small variations between pairs are normal and part of the handcrafted nature of the piece.
Who These Earrings Are For
These suit anyone who wants an earring they can put on and forget about through a beach day, a boat trip, or a regular day around South Florida. The lightweight, hypoallergenic build means they are comfortable for sensitive ears and for wear that goes from morning to night.
Wearing and Caring for Them
Because they are made from waxed cotton with brass beads and backs, they are built to resist tarnishing and skin discoloration over normal wear. Even so, rinsing off saltwater, sand, or sunscreen after a beach day and letting them air dry helps keep the beads and cord looking their best.
The Story Behind Odyssey Importing
