Meet The Cowry Goddess Jewelry Collection
Leslie started The Cowry Goddess Jewelry Collection as a way to highlight and share her culture in a visible and wearable art form. Her curated designs aim to celebrate her heritage, linage, and culture as Cowry shells embody such a significant meaning in her illustrious history. Cowry Shells were the first form of currency in Africa so she wanted her designs to be a reflection of what the Cowry shell embodies, which is Power, Purpose, Potential, Prosperity and Protection. The Cowry Goddess Jewelry Collection is handcrafted in 925 Sterling Silver and the Cowry Shells are responsibly sourced.
What Leslie loves most about growing her business is that she is able to transcend cultural differences by bringing awareness that rich African heritage is to be celebrated and cherished. It breaks down barriers and welcomes anyone who chooses to adorn themselves with this beautifully curated collection an opportunity to exhibit to the world that they are a part of a conscious mindset that celebrates our history.
