Treasures of Ashiakle ✨

Ashiakle is a Ghanaian goddess of the sea and the treasures within. I liked to think this gilded shell offering is something that might be found in her realm. I also wanted to make my version of a treasure chest, and I’m so in love with this offering box!

this is a vintage brass shell treasure box that I upcycled. the top was tarnished and the hinge was broke. I fixed this and polished and added a Laramar stone & fresh water pearl setting ontop. inside I added felt lining. the following treasures come with the box: several shells, Larimar, a heart, green apatite, quartz sphere with a shell stand, blue & green kyanite, pearls, aquamarines, fluorite, Prehnite, ammonite earrings (silver hooks) a mother of pearl tiny spoon, some baby Herkimers and a few other treasures!!

this box is 6.5 inches
