Current fascia research suggests that we’ve had it backwards for several millennia. This research indicates that bones, muscles, and organs--indeed, all other tissues in the body—may be, in fact, specializations within the unified medium of fascia. A primary constituent of embryonic development, fas

Metal: nickel-free earring back Material: soy-based resin Care: Keep away from moisture and harsh chemicals and allow perfumes and lotion to dry before wearing jewelry. Remove before showering and do not get wet. To clean your jewelry piece you only need a soft and dry cotton cloth. If is necessary to wash, use cold water, mild soap, and a delicate brush, let it dry before use or storing. About the Technique Each piece is made using design software, a 3D printer with low electricity consumption, and 3D plant-based resin. Each piece is cured and dried under sunlight polished, and painted by hand. The consumption of water used in cleaning the printed parts is minimal.  From the packaging to the materials Marcela is intentional about what she uses to create her jewelry and is designed to care for the environment. No VOC, no BPA, no irritating and harmful chemicals are used. The resin is sensitive to UV light, therefore only sunlight is used to dry the jewelry pieces instead of artificial light boxes, reducing electricity consumption.

The Worn Clay Paver is hand-antiqued in the spirit of the aged terracotta earthenware. Characterized by unfinished edges and a patinated appearance, this paver lends tactile warmth to its surroundings. An ideal choice for pathways, patios and interior and exterior cladding. The Worn Clay Paver, when installed correctly, is permeable and allows rainwater to pass through to the earth beneath it to replenish the land's natural aquifers. Made in California.  The Worn Clay Paver is suited for sand-set applications and is available in a tile format in select colors, if mortaring to a substrate is desired. When sampling our worn clay pavers, you will receive either a tile or cobble size. If you would like support with your paver design (i.e. paver selection, layout, DG or grout pairing), please fill out this questionnaire and someone from our design team will be in touch with recommendations. What is permeability and why is it important? Permeability refers to how the pavers are installed to allow water to infiltrate. We believe surfaces that allows water to flow are better for the earth, soil organisms, drainage, and flora.
