The Rod of Asclepius
The Rod of Asclepius is an ancient Greek symbol associated with medicine, consisting of a serpent coiled around a rod.
In ancient Greek religion and mythology, Asclepius was the god of medicine and healing. His daughters are Hygieia (goddess
of cleanliness), Iaso (goddess of recuperation from illness), Aceso (goddess of the healing process), Aglea (the goddess of splendor
and adornment), and Panacea (goddess of universal remedy).

THE MYTH
Asclepius is the god of Healing. He is the son of Apollo (god of healing, truth, and prophecy) and the nymph Coronis. While pregnant
with Asclepius, Coronis secretly took a second, mortal lover. When Apollo found out, he sent Artemis to kill her. While Coronis burned
on the funeral pyre, Apollo felt pity and rescued the unborn child from the corpse. Asclepius was taught about medicine and healing by
the wise centaur Cheiron and became so skilled in it that he succeeded in bringing one of his patients back from the dead. Zeus, king
of the gods, felt that the immortality of the Gods was threatened and struck down the healer with a thunderbolt. At Apollo’s request,
Asclepius was placed among the stars as Ophiuchus, the serpent-bearer. In the Iliad, Homer mentions Asceplius only as a skillful
physician and the father of two Greek doctors at Troy, Machaon, and Podalirius; in later times, however, he was honored as a hero and
eventually worshiped as a god. The cult began in Thessaly but spread to many parts of Greece. Because it was supposed that Asclepius
effected cures of the sick in dreams, the practice of sleeping in his temples in Epidaurus in South Greece became common. In 293 B.C.
his cult spread to Rome. Asclepius was frequently represented standing and dressed in a long cloak with bare breast; his usual attribute
was a staff with a serpent coiled around it. This staff is the only true symbol of medicine. Citation

FAQ

Yes, we only work with solid metals, we don’t work with plated jewelry. We offer 10k solid gold and 14k solid gold.

Unlike plated gold, solid gold should not tarnish. Having said that, this doesn’t mean your jewelry will never tarnish. As long as you take care of your jewlry and avoid consistent exposure to harsh chemicals such as hairspray, perfume, chlorine etc. Your jewelry should not tarnish.

Most people are allergic to nickel when they wear jewelry. Our yellow and rose gold don’t contain any nickel while our white gold contains minimal amounts. If you feel like you have sensitive skin, we would recommend opting for 14k yellow gold. This way you are buying jewelry with high gold purity and it’s nickel-free.

For our silver jewelry, we only use 925 sterling silver which is nickel-free.

Absolutely, each of our jewelry pieces is stamped with its corresponding mark to assure authenticity and quality.

Pure silver is 99.9% silver, very soft and less durable, whereas our jewelry is made from sterling or 925 silver, a more durable alloy with 92.5% silver and 7.5% other metals.

Rhodium plating is what makes good-looking silver and white gold jewelry look great. Used in the aerospace industry, rhodium plating gives silver and white gold a whiter and brighter look. It also helps with hardening the metal and prevents them from oxidizing when in contact with skin. So, rhodium plating is like a special magic that makes your jewelry look amazing and last a long time!
