This piece is inspired by Glaucus atlanticus, a tiny sea slug better known as the Blue Dragon.

It feeds on venomous siphonophores, including the Portuguese man-of-war, but instead of simply surviving their sting, Glaucus stores their stinging cells in its own body and uses them for its own defense.

This ability became the central meaning behind the piece: taking something that could harm you and turning it into your own protection.

That’s why I see this piece as a kind of talisman — not against danger itself, but as a symbol of the ability to transform it into your own strength.

Handcrafted in 925 sterling silver and finished with rhodium plating to help preserve its shine over time.

The Glaucus piece consists of three elements. The central part, a 3 cm mollusk, rests on the nose, leaving no obstruction for vision. The chain is made of stainless steel with beveled facets that add extra shine. The ends are shaped like tentacles, adorned with the logo and a pearl.

This piece is suitable for any nose shape, as it simply rests on the bridge of the nose.

Crafting process

All Chainsself pieces are carefully handmade in Tbilisi, Georgia. 

The wax model, texturing, finishing, and polishing are all done by hand in the small Chainsself workshop in Tbilisi. The piece is then cast in silver by a specialized casting studio, after which each item is individually hand-finished.

Since every item is made to order, production can take 1–2 weeks. The process begins with casting the piece in wax and refining it with precision tools. Once the wax models are ready, we send them in batches to a specialized foundry to be cast in silver—a process that usually takes 1–2 days. After casting, each piece is hand-finished with a variety of tools to ensure exceptional quality. When the batch is complete, the items are sent to our shipping service, which delivers them according to schedule.

Please note that production times may occasionally be extended due to unforeseen circumstances. We appreciate your patience and always do our best to ensure your jewelry reaches you as quickly as possible.
