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 united 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 this, I wanted to make a simpler, more economical version that does not require setting, for all those people who want to wear this amulet.
