Abundance

For many cultures, especially in parts of Africa, the use of cowry shells is deeply ingrained in traditions and customs. Their continued use in rituals and ceremonies helps to maintain a link to cultural heritage, where the shells are regarded as potent symbols of prosperity and abundance. My inclusion of precious metals is further assertion of abundance of personal and spiritual wealth.
