[Shan Hai Ji] Serene Realm II - Pyrite Turquoise Necklace

[Shan Hai Ji] Serene Realm II - Pyrite Turquoise Necklace • The Shan Hai Series • Animal bones and leather are the primary materials for this series, where art and skeletal forms collide to give birth to these creations. Each unique set of bones is in its natural, original state, not artificially processed. They represent the final form of an individual's vibrant life, much like how each of us strives to live authentically in our own way in this generation. Lamarck's theory of acquired characteristics speaks to the principle of use and disuse. Through generational evolution, bones become the ultimate form adapted for survival. We invite you and I to become observers, to jointly cherish this final testament to life. • Design Philosophy • This new creation features turquoise with a high proportion of pyrite as its centerpiece. Unlike ordinary turquoise, the surface of this stone possesses a dazzling radiance, akin to a lake shimmering under the intense sun—serene yet profoundly deep. The surrounding structure of the piece envelops the stone in a skeletal form, symbolizing the concept of "guardianship." Even when flesh and blood have long since vanished, bones remain to watch over beliefs, promises, and emotions, ensuring they endure eternally. Iran, a land steeped in history and rich culture, is also renowned globally for its exquisite mineral resources. Among its most representative treasures is Persian Turquoise, cherished by jewelry enthusiasts and collectors worldwide for its deep, pure color and fine, scarce-crack texture. This turquoise boasts a long history, traditionally regarded as a protective and lucky gemstone. It holds a significant place in Persian craftsmanship and adornment culture, continuing to profoundly influence global jewelry design and aesthetic trends. • Basic Information • Dimensions: 34x15x6mm (excluding bail) Material: 925 Silver • Contents • - Pendant/Necklace (optional purchase) - Silver polishing cloth - Thick, transparent jewelry zip-lock bag • Jewelry Care • - If not worn for an extended period, store in a sealed bag to slow oxidation. - Minimize contact with other metals or hard objects to prevent scratches. - If the metal oxidizes or discolors, use a silver polishing cloth for care. • Custom Sizing • Each piece from Shan Hai Ji is handcrafted and is a unique creation.
