Ancient Wild (Speckled Stone White Spotted Gentian / Hinoki Wood / Black Gold Obsidian) (16cm)

"Original creation; any resemblance to existing works is purely coincidental. The following is for legend or inspiration, not actual effect." In the distant, untamed wilderness, a world of vast grey rocks and wild grasses unfolds. The earth beneath bears the footprints of ancient creatures, and in an unassuming corner, a speckled egg lies quietly. What is the beginning of this life? Will it hatch into a mighty dinosaur or a delicate bird? This mysterious egg ignites an insatiable curiosity for the unknown. The "Ancient Wild" bracelet is crafted from Speckled Stone, Hinoki Wood, and Black Gold Obsidian, embodying the simplicity and mystery of the primeval wilderness. The speckled stone, with its shell-like texture of grey with black spots, evokes the wonder and anticipation of new life being born. The crimson Hinoki Wood emanates a warm aura, like the soil nurturing life in the wild. And the Black Gold Obsidian, reminiscent of the deep, starry night sky of ancient times, shines with flecks of gold, symbolizing hope and the future. Interwoven brass-colored zinc alloy details add a touch of vintage charm, as if narrating tales of ancient times. Let the wearer awaken a sense of reverence for pristine nature and feel the infinite possibilities of life. --- Metal Care: 1. Avoid Contact with Water and Sweat: Metal oxidizes easily when exposed to water. It is recommended to avoid wearing the jewelry while washing hands, swimming, or exercising to prevent sweat and moisture from accelerating discoloration. 2. Keep Away from Chemicals: Chemicals such as cosmetics, perfumes, and cleaning agents can damage the surface of the jewelry. It is advisable to put on jewelry after applying makeup to avoid direct contact with chemicals. 3. Avoid Collisions and Friction: Collisions and friction can cause surface scratches. Try to avoid rubbing the jewelry against hard objects or dropping it. 4. Store Separately: When storing jewelry, it is best to keep it in a sealed bag or an anti-oxidation bag, and store it separately from other metal jewelry to prevent friction and oxidation reactions. 5. Polishing and Maintenance: Silver jewelry can be polished with a silver polishing cloth. Other metal jewelry can be wiped with a regular glasses cleaning cloth. Please note that non-silver jewelry may experience a chemical reaction if wiped with a silver polishing cloth. --- Metal Experiments and Usage: Self-conducted experiments tested the performance of metals in various environments (sulfurous hot springs, high salinity, abrasion, hydrochloric acid), with the following results: ◇ Brass: Under normal use, it will gradually deepen in color, presenting an antique style. One metal, two experiences. High-salinity environments may produce yellowish-brown copper oxide. ◇ Alloy (Brass/Zinc/Stainless Steel/Silver surface, Copper/Brass interior): Please note for those with copper allergies! Experiments show that high salinity or high acidity environments accelerate oxidation, causing darkening or verdigris formation. ◇ S925 Silver: Turns black in sulfurous environments. High-salinity environments cause cloudiness (can be wiped with a silver polishing cloth). Hydrochloric acid environments turn it red or cloudy. ◇ Type 304 Stainless Steel: Very stable in general environments. May develop pitting (greenish-brown oxide) when exposed to hydrochloric acid. Once the outer layer is damaged, contact with high-salinity environments will produce yellowish-brown oxides. ◇ Zinc Alloy: Very stable in normal environments. However, in highly acidic environments (such as hydrochloric acid), cracks may appear, and changes will begin from these cracks, leading to metal embrittlement. ◇ 14K Gold Filled (Plated): The interior is typically brass, with a thick layer of gold plated on the exterior. Under normal use, it can last for 5-10 years. Avoid contact with chemical substances when wearing. If the outer layer is scratched, exposing the brass layer, oxidation may occur; in the experimental environments described above, the outer layer remains very stable.
