This old symbol can be found in many cultures throughout history and according to some sources incorporates all-encompasing wisdom or the inner (cognitive) light.
We distance ourselves vigorously from the misuse of this symbol by the Nazis of the 20th and 21st century. The contrast between "all-encompasing wisdom" and the reality of rightwing ideology could not be bigger.
Wooden pieces which are supposed to be inserted into the body are best treated before first use and regularly later on with Jojoba or Linseed Oil. These oils harden when exposed to oxygen and protect the wood. This can darken the material a bit. We also recommend to additionally seal the wood with bees wax. Depending on how often you wear your jewelry this should be repeated regularly.
We recommend to occasionally polish jewelry from horn with vaseline.
"Saddle Plugs" are a bit more narrow in the middle. No rubber rings are necessary for fixation and the Plug or Tunnel has a nice fit in the ear lobe.
Jewelry from organic materials (i.e. wood, horn and bone) offers best wearing comfort due to its light weight and is suitable for people with allergies. As opposed to Piercing-Jewelry made from synthetic materials or stainless steel the formation of odors during wearing is greatly reduced. When used as intended the jewelry is harmless but not sterilizable. It will last a very long time given regular cleaning and correct treatment.
