Ek-Cowri RingThe Cowrie shell is typically the exoskeleton of a tiny sea snail. It was an acceptable means of currency from ancient times all the way up to the 1800s. Colloquially the phrase "ek cowrie" or one cowrie is used to say almost nothing. This statement ring has been designed to highlight the shell in all its natural grandeur. This ring is worn as a knuckle ring and covers all 4 fingers. Made from a giant cowrie clasped with brass. Product Details
