WEALTH IS NOT PRINTED. IT IS EARNED BENEATH THE WAVES.

In the Langa Langa Lagoon of the Solomon Islands, money is not a digital number or a piece of paper. It is a masterpiece created from thousands of hours of human life. It is ""Red Gold.""

The Living Currency takes you deep into the world of the artificial islands of Malaita, where survival is an art form and tradition is the ultimate standard of value. Joseph Walekwate, a son of Ailau Village, provides the first formal guide to the sacred creation of shell money-a process that has sustained his people for centuries.
