Description
The caduceus is the symbol of the healing arts. It traces down to the intertwined copper serpents Moses held over his tribe to protect them while crossing the desert. Lately it gained a yet deeper meaning as we discovered that this is the shape of the blueprints of life, the double coils of DNA.
metals - no plating! Made in USA, these are of the highest quality!
All of Sergio Lub's designs are handcrafted the old fashioned way, starting from solid metal wires. We use no plating, no casting and no machine stamping, all industrial techniques that save time, but compromise quality.
Our red metal is 99.99% Copper, lead free, the st available. Copper is one of the friendliest elements as it combines with many others. To find copper this in nature is more difficult than finding gold.
Our yellow metal is Jeweler's Brass, an alloy of 85% copper and 15% zinc, both essential minerals worn since prehistoric times by many non-related cultures around the world. Science has already proven that metals such as copper are absorbed through the skin, so besides their beauty, our bracelets can also be considered a time-release source of essential minerals.
Our white metal is German silver, which is 65% copper plus zinc, nickel and silver. Some of our "silver" models are made using sterling silver, which is 92.5% silver, with copper added for strength.
