About the Lucky Bean (Sea Ear) Pendant

This summer when I was in Cádiz I spent hours searching on the beach for the lucky beans that I always caught as a child with my grandmother. I knew it was difficult but if I found one I would make myself a pendant to be lucky during the year and to remember her. I only found a few broken pieces that were difficult to set.

At the return of summer, a person ordered me two pendants with some shells that he had caught on the beach. When he showed them to me I saw that they were lucky beans. I set two of them for him and he gave me another one to make a pendant for myself. I don't know if it was a coincidence, but my grandmother called them lucky beans for a reason ✨
