The EGŌ cowrie heel (currently undergoing production) is a symbol of womanhood, fertility, birth and wealth designed by Funfere Koroye.

Both sides are equally balanced to represent the duality of the cowrie - which has been used as currency in several parts of the world, as well as being used, in the past and present, very extensively in jewelry, and for other decorative and ceremonial purposes.
