Groattie Buckie

Groattie-buckie is the Orkney name for the cowrie. We enjoy hunting for the elusive shell on Sunday trips to the beach. More than once, bemused tourists in Birsay have asked me what we’re all looking for.

Cowries have been used in many parts of the world as currency, as charms or for decoration. Wear your own Orkney charm with this mounted shell from an Orcadian beach.
