My name is Cosi and I am 19 years old. My passion for cowrie shells started in 2013 when I discovered a cowrie shell on a beach in Girolata, Corsica. After doing some research on the cowrie shell, I found out that the origins of cowrie shells date back to three thousand years ago. When they were used as Chinese currency. Having been born and raised in Hong Kong, I felt an immediate connection. These shells tell a story of their own with their intricate detail and I feel that their beauty can really be appreciated in the form of jewellery.
