遗忘潮汐项链
中心宝石是一种由采矿废料制成的“科技化石”,取代了传统开采的宝石。它由公司内部制作,采用宝石边角料/碎片(来自宝石雕刻师)、纯银边角料(来自Loki生产)、海胆刺(来自新南威尔士州美食供应商的贝壳废料)以及各种其他回收材料组合而成。
每件作品均采用多种材质手工制作,这意味着每件科技化石都是独一无二且不可复制的。这是正在进行的Loki研究计划的一部分,旨在重新评估我们地表上现有的矿物和材料,并避免使用进一步破坏地球的材料。
MINE FREE – 采用 100% 再生纯银 (925) 铸造,经过精炼和测试
SLOW MADE – 由澳大利亚一小队珠宝工匠手工制作
经久耐用 – 1年保修。保修期外的部件可享受维修和抛光服务
“有什么东西被冲上了泥泞的河岸,是地壳运动和地震从淤泥中冲出来的。这东西好像是沉寂太久后总会裂开的。它是来自二叠纪吗?石炭纪?还是在那个时期,在那个年代的某个地方。不过,它有点不对劲,看起来不像我在这附近见过的其他化石……”

Often when companies manufacture their products in overseas factories, there is little to no transparency and oversight – leading to labour abuses, environmental pollution and compromised quality.
Although its more expensive, making Loki pieces in Australia ensures labour & environmental protections, and a high quality of life for every artisan that contributed to the piece.
If you trace the origin of precious metals extracted on an industrial scale, you find a wake of destruction. For example, to mine one ounce of gold, you need to process 2.8 tonnes of ore, use and contaminate ~2,286 litres of water, and generate 800kg of CO2.
With such extensive extraction, and all the damage that comes with industrial mining, it is time to rethink how we source the materials we use. Precious metals like silver and gold are incredible candidates for circularity. They are considered 'infinitely recyclable' because their chemical and physical properties do not degrade during the recycling process. With so much metal already available above-ground, it makes sense to recycle what we have and avoid newly mined metals.
