India Cowry Shell Yellow 15-21mm 2-hole 100 Gram Bag

These are genuine cowry shells in a sunny yellow finish, sold by the 100g bag in sizes ranging from 15–21mm, each drilled with two holes for flexible stringing and stitching options. Cowries have been used in adornment for centuries, and the two-hole configuration opens up weaving and multi-strand techniques that a single-hole shell simply can't do.

The yellow finish reads bright and warm — cheerful in a retro, summery way that suits festival and bohemian aesthetics.

What to make with them

The two holes make these cowries well-suited for bead weaving, ladder-stitch connectors, and multi-strand bracelet or collar designs; they also work as statement focal pieces in macramé and fiber work where you can lace cord directly through both holes to anchor the shell flat against the piece.

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.
