Jewelry-grade bio-epoxy offers high clarity, low toxicity, and excellent durability, making it a preferred choice for crafting sustainable heritage quality art, while reducing reliance on petroleum-based products. VOC free. Crystal-clear finish with a high-gloss, glass-like sheen. Superior non-yellowing (UV resistant) properties, tensile strength, adhesive properties, and impact resistance, compared to traditional petroleum-based epoxies. Includes HALS (Hindered Amine Light Stabilizers) to prevent yellowing. Waterproof.

Bio-epoxy is seen as a preservation and amplification binder for the properties of the natural elements it's bonded to. It acts as a 'lock' holding these energies steady, while preserving and grounding them.

Surgical Steel

A durable metal for daily wear comprised primarily of iron mixed with chromium (13-30%), nickel to reduce brittleness, and molybdenum to increase corrosion resistance. The chromium oxide outer layer is self-healing, and repairs itself if scratched, preventing long-term corrosion. Depending on the grade and treatment, it can be slightly magnetic.
Surgical steel can come in a wide variety of colors. Some colors are formed by heat oxidization (blue/purple), while others are formed by other hypoallergenic metal deposits as a vapor coating (physical vapor deposition), and still others are created from immersion in a chemical bath forming an oxide layer. These processes ensure the pigment Is integrated into the surface, not merely painted on.

As a 'self-healing' metal, surgical steel is associated with protection, healing and grounding. Viewed as a symbol of resilience, endurance and ability to recover. In many metaphysical traditions it is considered an energy shield, suitable for keeping one's energy field and aura intact, especially during difficult times.

Pearl

The only gems created by a living creature (mollusks) that are also cherished for their un-cut beauty. Known to symbolize purity, wisdom and wealth. They are composed of a nacre, which consists of calcium carbonate (aragonite) platelets held together by an organic binding agent called conchiolin. A pearl forms when any irritant (not just a grain of sand) triggers the mollusk to secrete nacre, layering it over the irritant. When rubbed against the teeth, natural pearls feel slightly gritty, whereas fake ones feel smooth.

Regarded as “Stones of Sincerity” believed to promote harmony, inner peace and calmness. Promoted for anxiety and self-acceptance. Closely linked to the moon and water, divine feminine energy, fertility and nurturing. Thought to ward off negativity and bring wisdom to the wearer.
