Oxytocin – Love hormone
Don’t forget to buy the perfect gift for Valentine’s Day. Why not a pair of oxytocin earrings in silver?
Oxytocin is a feel-good hormone and called the ”Love hormone”. It’s released during physical contact.
Oxytocin is a peptide consisting of 9 amino acids. The jewelry shows the peptide chain in three dimensions.
Valentine’s Day
Give a nice Valentine’s Day gift on 14 February. Why not a silver heart?
I cast silver hearts of the silver that is leftover when I make my science jewelry. Each heart is unique. It gets a wonderful weight and an exciting finish.
Toxin jewelry in silver
AmmTX3 is a toxin from the scorpion Androctonus mauretanicus.
It’s a small protein that blocks the potassium channels in our cells.
Erabutoxin A is a neurotoxin from the Philippine sea snake Laticauda semifasciata.
Erabutoxin A is part of the family of three-finger toxins. Three-finger toxins are small proteins found in the venom of snakes. The toxin, which consists of three beta containing loops, resembles a hand with three fingers.
Strong flavors in our food

A Safranal molecule in silver & gold. Safranal is a molecule isolated from saffron. It gives saffron its distinct taste and aroma. Saffron consists of the stigmas of the crocus flowers (Crocus sativus).
Some gingerbread spices as silver jewelry. Coumarin (cinnamon), gingerol (ginger) and eugenol (cloves).
Hepatitis C jewelry
One of this year’s Nobel jewelry is inspired by the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. The Nobel Prize was awarded Harvey J. Alter, Charles M. Rice och Michael Houghton for the discovery of the Hepatitis C virus.
The Hepatitis C is a small enveloped RNA virus. The virus particle consists of a lipid membrane envelope. Within the envelope an icosahedral core. My interpretation is a virus jewelry where parts of the membrane is peeled off so that the protein capsid is visible.
