The combination of raven claw and smooth merlinite creates a jewelry with a strong symbolism of balance between instinct and inner knowledge. In many mythologies, the raven is perceived as a guide between the worlds, a symbol of wisdom, transformation and the ability to see hidden connections. Its claws carry the raw power of nature, independence and instinctive energy of survival, which is not governed by rules, but by natural feeling.

Merlinite, also known as the "spirit stone", is a combination of white quartz and dark inclusions of manganese oxides, which creates its typical black and white pattern. Geologically, it is a mineral mixture formed by natural processes in quartz-rich rocks, where the contrast of the two components creates a unique visual effect. In its smooth form, merlinite appears calmer and more unified, while still maintaining its natural pattern. On a symbolic level, it is associated with intuition, the balance of opposites, and the connection of the rational and intuitive components of perception.

Together, raven claws and merlinite symbolize the ability to cope with internal contradictions, trust in one's own instinct and intuition, and the search for balance between the darker and lighter sides of life.

The construction of the jewelry is handmade from surgical steel and the connecting material is an alloy of tin and silver. The jewelry is then treated similarly to silver - we polish it once in a while. The more the jewelry is worn, the better it gets, it polishes itself on the wearer's clothes, skin, etc. The metal is stable and does not contain nickel or heavy metals. The jewelry can be worn all the time, even in water, but it is good to dry it afterwards and care for it more often. The jewelry is hung on a braided, cotton cord and secured with an enlargement knot.
