About the Sea Earring Pendant (Lucky Bean)
When I posted the photo of the lucky beans, I realized that it was not only a symbol of childhood for me and my family, it also represented childhood for an entire invisible community that gathers every year on the beaches and is filled with excitement to find this small amulet that the sea brings us. A community that remains connected to previous generations through the memory of those mothers and grandmothers who decided to share their time teaching us how to build a legacy of happy memories.
For all these reasons, I wanted to create a simpler, more economical version that does not require setting, for all those who wish to wear this amulet.
