  • About Wood

    1. Proper Storage
    When not worn, clean with an odorless dry cloth. Store in scent-proof sealed bags or glass containers placed in cool, shaded areas. Avoid compression to prevent damage.

    2. No Hand-Rubbing Polishing
    Rubbing beads creates surface patina that clogs pores, trapping internal oils. This diminishes fragrance. Skin oils and sweat absorbed during handling will alter the natural scent profile.

    3. Avoid Water Exposure
    Brief contact with clean water is tolerable. Prolonged or frequent exposure compromises fragrance integrity. Absolute prohibition: Never expose to hot water.

    4. Prevent Sun Exposure
    Direct sunlight accelerates fragrance dissipation and may cause complete aroma loss. UV radiation also induces cracking through rapid dehydration.

    5. Shield from Oils/Chemicals
    Wood readily absorbs external odors (perfumes, lotions) and chemical residues. Once contaminated, original fragrance is irrecoverable. Remove before:
    • Applying skincare products
    • Using perfumes/colognes
    • Handling cleaning agents

  • Bodhi Seeds

    1. Storage Protocol
    Bodhi seeds crack when wind-dried. Store in sealed bags or glass jars when not worn to maintain humidity balance.

    2. Absolute Water Prohibition
    As plant seeds, bodhi expands upon water contact causing:
    ✓ Irreversible cracking
    ✓ Delamination (surface peeling)
    ✓ Structural degradation

    3. Sunlight Avoidance
    UV exposure triggers:
    ✗ Thermal shock fractures
    ✓ Accelerated dehydration cracks
    ✗ Surface exfoliation
    Maintain stable temperatures below 86°F (30°C).

    4. Scientific Cleaning
    For routine maintenance:
    ① Wipe with barely-damp microfiber cloth
    ② Air-dry immediately
    For stubborn residue:
    ① Use soft-bristle brush (e.g. horsehair)
    ② Apply trace olive oil (<0.5ml per 10 beads)
    ③ Buff gently along grain patterns
    ❗ Oil excess causes permanent blotching

    5. Natural Conditioning
    Human skin oils optimally nourish bodhi seeds:
    ✓ Palm secretions enhance luster
    ✓ Daily handling builds protective patina
    ✓ Maintains seed vitality without artificial treatments

  • Yak Bone

    1. Stabilize Temperature & Humidity
    Yak bone is hygroscopic and thermally sensitive. Maintain within:
    ✓ Temperature: 15-25°C (59-77°F)
    ✓ Relative Humidity: 45-55% RH
    ✗ Avoid rapid fluctuations exceeding ±5°C/±10% RH per 24h to prevent:
    • Structural cracking
    • Delamination
    • Warping deformation

    2. Delicate Cleaning Protocol
    Materials:
    • Microfiber cloth (ISO Class 5 cleanroom grade)
    • Distilled water (pH 7.0)
    Procedure:
    ① Dry-wipe surface along osteon grain direction
    ② For stubborn residues: Dampen cloth edge minimally
    ③ Immediate blot-drying required
    ‼️ Prohibited:
    • Chemical cleaners (even pH-neutral)
    • Abrasives
    • Liquid immersion

    3. Museum-Grade Storage
    ① Wrap in oxygen-free archival tissue (pH 8.5-10.5)
    ② Place in rigid conservation box (buffered acid-free board)
    ③ Maintain with silica gel (35-40% RH) + oxygen scavenger
    ④ Isolate from hard objects using ethafoam® spacers

  • Crystal

    1. Energetic Cleansing & Recharging
    Crystals expend protective energy and absorb negativity over time. Purify monthly by:
    ✓ Placing on natural cleansing stones (selenite/quartz cluster)
    ✓ Minimum 2-hour immersion in crystalline resonance field
    ✓ Moonlight charging during full moon cycles

    2. UV Exposure Prohibition
    Subterranean formation makes crystals photosensitive:
    ✗ Direct sunlight fades chromophores (pink/purple/yellow crystals)
    ✗ Thermal shock risk above 40°C (104°F)
    ✓ Indirect daylight ≤30 minutes acceptable

    3. Hydro-Nourishment Cycle
    Silica-based structures require hydration:
    ① Submerge in spring/distilled water 20 minutes weekly
    ② Pat dry immediately with microfiber cloth
    ‼️ Check string integrity monthly (water accelerates fiber degradation)

    4. Chemical Contamination Prevention
    Avoid exposure to:
    ✗ Alkaline soaps (pH >8 dissolves surface matrix)
    ✗ Surfactants (sodium lauryl sulfate etches surfaces)
    ✓ Remove before bathing/cleaning

    5. Energetic Imprint Management
    Crystals develop personalized resonance:
    ✓ Limit others' wear to ≤15 minutes
    ✓ Post-contact cleansing mandatory for:
    • Emotional transfers
    • Extended physical contact
    ✗ Permanent energetic contamination occurs after 2+ hours

    6. Isolation Storage
    Despite Mohs 7 hardness:
    ✓ Store individually in silk-lined compartments
    ✗ Prevent contact with diamonds/corundum (Mohs 8+)
    ✓ Cushion drill holes against impact fragmentation

  • Dzi Bead

    1. Restricted Handling
    As consecrated relics, Dzi beads absorb energies:
    ✓ Only owners & family may touch
    ✗ If handled by others, purify with dhang smoke before re-wearing

    2. Continuous Devotional Wear
    Dzi's magnetic field harmonizes with wearer:
    ✓ Wear consistently after first consecration
    ✗ Prolonged storage disrupts energetic alignment
    ✓ Minimum 8 hours daily contact recommended

    3. Sweat Prohibition
    High-sodium perspiration corrodes silicate matrix:
    • Removes protective patina
    • Induces micro-fractures
    ✓ Remove during exercise/sweaty activities

    4. Thermal Protection
    Agate structure suffers photothermal damage:
    ✗ Direct sunlight >15 minutes causes crazing
    ✗ Dashboard exposure = irreversible fissures
    ✓ Store in brocade pouches when not worn

    5. Impact Prevention
    Despite Mohs 7-8 hardness:
    ✗ Vulnerable to shattering upon impact
    ✓ Especially drill hole areas (structural weak points)
    ✓ Never store with metal jewelry

    6. Moisture Control
    Hydrothermal degradation risks:
    ✗ Shower steam opens micro-pores
    ✗ Surfactants strip sacred oil coatings
    ✓ Annual recoating with yak butter required

    7. Reverent Consecration
    Maintain ceremonial purity:
    ✗ Never enter nightclubs/casinos
    ✗ Avoid hospitals/funerals unless blessed
    ✓ Remove during intimate activities
