THE SHELL BRACELET IS AN ELEGANT PIECE OF MARINE JEWELRY
The shell bracelet is a natural, classy and original piece of jewelry, reminiscent of the sea and the beach. Its materials are resistant and comfortable, perfect for a timeless style that defies all competition! Whether worn on the wrist or ankle, in winter under a woollen sweater, or in spring for a stroll with friends, this marine jewel is a sublime piece to have in your jewelry box!
Made of gold or silver and often adorned with cowries and pearls, it was used by many populations to chase away bad dreams and bring good luck. It's a trendy, lucky accessory, a true symbol of the ocean.
A BREATHTAKING CHOICE OF COWRIE SHELL BRACELETS
No two shell bracelets are alike: whether in color, shape, clasp, materials or size, the possibilities are endless. You'll find bracelets with stones, pearls and stainless steel... Tied around the ankle with shorts, dresses or hemmed pants, or worn on the wrist with a long-sleeved t-shirt, the choice is yours! If you're a fan of discreet jewelry, then opt for a fine Brazilian-style cord shell bracelet, or a gold or silver chain to embellish your arms or legs!
Nowadays, cowrie shells are used by jewelers to design unique and trendy ornaments. For women and men looking for a sober, classic piece of jewelry, we can't recommend anything better than a cowrie shell bracelet. Perfect for summer, these shell bracelets can be colored or plain! Their white and beige hues make them delicate and precious shells, true symbols of coastlines and foam.
The cauri is a white or beige mollusc, sometimes brown, with a slit and darker teeth. This small shell was used as currency, but also as a good-luck charm. It's a symbol of wealth, beauty and self-confidence.
HOW TO CHOOSE A BRACELET?
To choose the right bracelet, you need to consider several points, including the size of your wrist or ankle. The easiest way to do this is to use a tape measure and measure it at the thinnest point. The jewel must not pinch the skin or be too large and loose.
Your morphology is also important. For curvaceous women, we recommend bangles, cuff bracelets or large chains, which will enhance your appearance. On the other hand, if you're slimmer, then opt for a thin charm or stack your bracelets!
When temperatures plummet, it's easy to feel compelled to throw away your marine jewelry... and wrongly so! They breathe joy and good cheer... So why not wear a seashell bracelet? Trendy all year round, they can be brightly coloured (blue, green, pink...), sober (black, grey, white...) or shiny (gold, silver). In winter, choose thick, metal jewelry in silver, blue or black, while in summer, choose textile and cord bracelets.
And if you prefer to wear a piece of jewelry around your foot, then perhaps a shell anklet or anklet chain would be more suitable. Whether it's a chain or a leather cord, this type of adornment is a must-have if you want to deck yourself out in a thousand colors!
Sometimes adorned with bivalve mollusks like scallops, sometimes with univalve mollusks like Mediate starfish.
WEAR THE SHELL AROUND YOUR WRIST OR ANKLE!
If you're going to a family party or an event with friends, let your femininity shine through by wearing a shell bracelet combining various mollusks. On the contrary, if the occasion is more formal, opt for a fine mesh chain set with cowrie shells, for a casual look.
To be 100% in line with the shell trend, don't overdo it. Choose your marine jewelry and your clothes logically, for a classy, trendy look, whether you're a street, bohemian or city girl. Tied at the ankle or wrist, this marine bracelet will effectively complete your outfit, especially if accompanied by a necklace or ring.
