Akofena Circle Earrings – Courage

Strength with responsibility.

The Akofena Circle Earrings are inspired by the Adinkra symbol Akofena, which represents courage, valor, and readiness to defend what is just. Rooted in Akan tradition, Akofena is drawn from the ceremonial swords carried by chiefs. These swords symbolized authority, justice, and the duty to protect community and truth.

Crafted in deep black, dark brown, and light brown wood with natural grain detailing, the circular form represents continuity and balance. The engraved word Courage grounds the design as an affirmation, not an accessory detail.

Lightweight and intentional, these earrings are made for women who stand firm in their values and move with quiet strength.
