Endangered Animals Collection

The Endangered Animals Collection is very important to us. We are continually amazed by the wonders that nature has created over millions of years, the enormous diversity of plants and animals that evolution has produced.

It is all the sadder to see how many of these extraordinary creatures are on the verge of extinction, mainly because of humans. To raise awareness and save endangered animals, we will donate 10% of net proceeds and support a Hawaiian conservation program.

Today I would like to introduce you to the animals that inspired us to create the Endangered Animals Collection. Our design team has created extraordinary pieces of jewelry that are reminiscent of these animals in shape and structure and symbolize their characteristics. These special animals are also reflected in the individual design of the packaging, with a small note inside where our animals provide some information about themselves.

Let me take you on a little educational adventure and share some of the amazing facts I gathered during my research about our five endangered animals.

Hello! My name is Axolotl, I am a salamander and my family and I live in lakes near Mexico City. Unfortunately there are only 50-1000 of us left. I have really cool superpowers: I can regenerate limbs, organs and even parts of my brain!

Axolotls are fascinating creatures. In the wild they only exist in a few canals and lakes near Mexico City. Due to pollution and habitat loss, these ever-smiling salamanders are critically endangered. Scientists are researching the axolotl's ability to regenerate fully functional limbs and organs in hopes of using this knowledge to cure spinal cord paralysis and more. Crazy, right?

Hello, follow my fluffy tail to my homeland: Madagascar! It would be great if you could help us preserve our habitats. As a ring-tailed lemur, I am very interested in promoting female empowerment as all of our group leaders are female – and I love basking in the sun!

In Madagascar you will find many amazing species that are only found there and nowhere else in the world. For example, thepussy-tailed ring-tailed lemurs with their striped tailsinspired us. They live in so-called groups of up to 30 animals with a dominant female leader. They are threatened with extinction because their habitat, the forests of Madagascar, are falling victim to deforestation.

Look at my bright blue feathers - aren't I stunning? As a Hyacinth Macaw, I enjoy flying over the lush South American rainforests. But as they become smaller and smaller, our population is also shrinking. In addition to our beauty, we are also the largest parrots.

The strikingly beautiful hyacinth macaws with their bright blue feathers are considered endangered. It is estimated that only up to 6,500 of these large parrots remain in the wild. With a length of 1 m from beak to tip of tail and a wingspan of 1.5 m, they are the largest parrots. Hyacinth macaws are also very intelligent, can solve problems and imitate human speech. The feathers and the fascinating color of the hyacinth macaw are reflected in the necklace and bracelet.

Nice to meet you! I am a pangolin and live in Asia. There are not many of my kind left. When something threatens me, I curl up into a ball under my scale armor, making me look like a pinecone.

The name pangolin comes from the Malay word 'penggulung', which means 'scooter'. Quite fitting, since pangolins curl up into a ball to defend themselves when threatened. This is what the Endangered Animals Collection ring and earring will remind you of. Theseshy and harmless animals are believed to be the most trafficked mammals in the world - illegally hunted for their meat and scales, they are critically endangered.

Aloha! I am a green sea turtle and my world is the deep blue sea. If you want to help me and my family, please take care of the oceans. I love swimming and gardening: by eating the tops of seaweed I keep it healthy.

As absolute globetrotters, green sea turtles live all over the world and use the earth's magnetic fields to navigate through the oceans. Since they feed on plants and only eat seaweed and algae, they are also known as the lawnmowers of the oceans. Green sea turtles are considered endangered and face threats such as entrapment in fishing gear, overharvesting of their eggs, and loss of beach nesting sites. The Endangered Animals Collection ring and bangle are designed to reflect the shells of these peaceful reptiles.
