Rachel Entwistle Moon Phases Bangle Silver
Alchemical Collection According to the Renaissance alchemists, all material substances are made up of the “Tria Prima” or Three Primes; mercury (spirit), salt (body) and sulphur (soul).It was thought that when the Primes were in balance the body would be healthy, free of disease. These Primes also made up the alchemists’ most cherished prize - thePhilosopher’s Stone. A stone that was thought to transform any base metal into gold or silver, acting as an elixir of life, and immortality.Rachel has created three silver bracelets, each of which is inspired by the Tria Prima:Mercury: To the Renaissance alchemists, mercury’s volatility made it the agent oftransformation, representing the transmutation of spirit. Wear the mercury symbol braceletto spread your wings and fly.Sulphur: Was considered a transforming essence, representing the soul of all material and living things, and associated with the power of the sun and nature. Wear the Sulphur symbol bracelet for soul-led adventures.Salt: Represented the feminine, the earth and the human body. A powerful preservative (the Egyptians used it in mummification), it was considered a path to immortality. Wear the Salt symbol bracelet to exude effortless femininity and the joy of earth-bound pleasures. Each Tria Prima bracelet is handmade in London, for modern day alchemists and adventurers.
