The phoenix is wreathed in the myths and legends of cultures around the globe. Some say the tale of this mythical bird spun forth from Ancient Egyptian legend; the ba of Ra (The Bennu) that flew across the waters of Nun, landed upon a single rock and issued a call that brought the world into being. In other cultures this creature of the sun is said to live hundreds of years, before engulfing itself in a pyre of flame and emerging forth from the ashes anew. A symbol of eternity, strength and renewal, the Phoenix came to symbolise the Eternal City of Rome, depicted on the coins of the last Roman Empire. Like the bird itself, the tale of the phoenix endures on, even after the fall of empires. Perhaps this is because its story of rebirth and renewal is a story of hope. Hope not just for oneself, but for humanity and the world we live in.
SIZING
For a neck that is a touch masculine, we advise the 55cm and beware of the 37cm... It can choke.
Then for a more feminine neck, we advise around 44cm and below unless you’re feeling extra ‘street’.
The chart below was depicted from top-secret Nasa documents. Turns out, sometimes length and girth does matter.
All of them can be adjusted slightly.
MATERIALS AND DURABILITY
This collection is handcrafted with 925 sterling silver and plated with 24k Gold Vermeil. Our silver is 100% certified, still working on the gold certificate though. The plating is 3.5 microns thick of gold on silver but we also add an additional little layer of 18k...
We've got some in-house scientist's that throughly tested that this will get you the longest lasting plating. The harder 18k protects the 24K the 24K has no weak metals in it and won't corrode as easy as 18k.
THE PIECES ARE SWEAT-PROOF, WATER-PROOF and OCEAN-PROOF.
With durability in mind, we source our pure recycled silver from a leading Belgium/German based company, where it is refined at 330ppt oxygen level – crucial to crafting a high quality product. Our silver is refined slightly above the 92.5% silver mark and each piece is actually 93% silver. We also use some methods that help make it slightly stronger than your traditional sterling and four times more corrosion resistant which has been certifiably tested. The gold is also sourced from a internationally recognized company here in Indonesia, used by many big brands for it's recycled gold but is not certified yet. We plate using some of the best technology around as well, taking no shortcuts.
These little goodies are then carefully packed away in an old-school matchbox that we crafted from recycled cardboard, with an organic cotton canvas bag, our signature silver polish cloth, n’ a little more...
