*this is a preorder and the first batch is set to ship mid-late March*
Currency Exchange is a limited-edition silk scarf inspired by vintage African trade beads, batik necklaces and cowrie shells. Adornments that once traveled oceans, used as symbols of wealth, protection and cultural exchange across the diaspora, now reimagined as a modern heirloom.
Each scarf arrives with a matching keepsake pouch, finished with a hand-tied wooden bead charm.
Generously cut to a 35" inch square, this piece offers plentiful styling options. Wear it in your hair, as a bag strap, or style it as a wrap top. It can even be framed and hung for display as the latest conversation starter in your favorite room. Your creativity is the only limit.
The pattern for this textile was designed by Shadé Akanbi, based in Brooklyn, NY
