Cowry Shell White/black 15-18mm 1-hole

These cowrie shell beads from Mahashayji Exports deliver the real thing — natural shell ranging 15-18mm, sold by 100g weight, each piece drilled with a single hole so they're ready to string, knot, or wire-wrap.

Each cowrie shows its natural white-to-cream exterior contrasted with the dark opening, so no two pieces look exactly alike — that black-and-white contrast is built in by nature, not a dye process.

What to make with them

String them individually on knotted cord for a classic beach-to-boardroom necklace, or wire-wrap clusters onto hair pins and bag charms where the shell's distinctive silhouette does the visual work without any additional embellishment.

Natural materials vary in color, pattern, and size. The beads you receive may differ slightly from the product photos — this is a characteristic of natural materials, not a defect.
