These Mbégté studs - meaning ‘joy’ in Wolof - represent life’s simple pleasures.
Lightweight and easy to wear - yet packed with character and texture.
These everyday classics create a clean, flowing line on the ear.
With the slightly domed surface catching the light, and illuminating the texture.

Made entirely by hand, from natural and recycled materials, our partners in Senegal make each piece by pouring 100% recycled silver into a mold of hand-carved cuttlefish bone.

As they make a new mold for every piece, each pendant has its own unique texture—like a fingerprint from the ocean.
