the platinum was burnt into the glass at 600 °c. the drinking glasses are designed using the same principles as all nature design glassware and have the same effects on what is placed inside. Each one of these glasses is mouth-blown and therefore an original item. about the product:mouth-blown lead-free glasssuiteable up to 70°cnot dishwasher safe flower of lifethis « flower of life » is one of the standard & most powerful symbols in nature in the holy geometry. It is an ancient metaphor for the connection of all life in the universe. this symbol has been known in many cultures; it is mostly applied for vitalising and stabilising foods and fluids. Its shape and symbolic powers are transferred and will resonate in fluids. quality mattersthe water you drink and use comes to you through an involved process such as pressurisation filtering sedentary storage etc. a process which has an effect on the quality of water as it comes out of the tap or bottle. Water's journey through pipes filters tanks and other processes we use to insure the essential safety of the water supply also takes out the natural vitality of the water as it is found in nature. nature's design glassware re-activates processed water and brings it «back to life» back to the energetic form it is in when it originally comes from nature. the spring: the best water for human health is fresh spring water. stress: even the best spring water loses vitality and energy when it is moved through pipes and other forms of water processing. the remedy: the design of nature design glassware revitalises weakened processed water from any source. Other liquids such as juices and wine also improve in taste and biological vitality when held in nature design glassware. Normal tap water is weakened by the unnaturally high pipe pressure and the flow in said pipes. A 3 minutes stay in a nature design drinking glass is enough to improve weakened tap water. The survey results come from the laboratory ef brown ch-3628 uttigen switzerland. golden ratiosince antiquity the underlying proportions of the golden ratio have served as the epitome of beauty and aesthetics. Even today this perfect proportion can be found in art in architecture in design – and elsewhere. The golden ratio is evident everywhere in nature which is why we use it as the guiding principle in the design of our products. It arises from the equality of proportions when the relationship between the larger and the smaller part is the same as that between the whole and the larger part. This ratio this formula – the phi number from mathematics – is 1.618. The fibonacci sequence of numbers is based on this same principle and describes the characteristics of growth processes which can be found in nature for instance in the leaf and flower position of plants. This arises for example in left and right handed spirals with a ratio of 8 to 13 or 21 to 34 (all numbers in the fibonacci sequence.) when dividing these numbers the result is always 1.618 which is known as phi or the golden ratio. All our glass and porcelain products are carefully conceived in accordance with the golden ratio making every piece genuinely pleasing to the eye and energetically in alignment with the flow of life force energy. symbols and affirmationsas long as humanity has existed all cultures on earth have used symbols. In order to understand the effectiveness of symbols it is necessary to understand the inherent resonance or vibration they contain. Sometimes this is conveyed using words (as in «affirmation») and sometimes using graphic symbols mathematics or sounds. The flower-of-life symbol is believed to contain all the geometry of life as we know it on planet earth. It is a universal symbol of energy life and the connection among all things. Water as a medium seems to be able to recognise and retain various kinds of information vibration resonance and to carry this «informational content» with it.platinumthere is only 0.005 ppm platinum in the earth's crust. An extremely rare metal on our planet and therefore something to truely value. A flower of life in platinum therefore has the specific quality to strengthen self-confidence and self-love. Feel your worth. cleaningthe flower of life in the base of the glass (outside) is burnt in at a temperature of around 600°c and then coated with a food-safe protective coating. limescale build-up is best removed with warm water and a tablespoon of citric acid or vinegar*. Fill the affected glass with a mixture of warm water and citric acid / vinegar and let it stand for 12 hours. Subsequently dry the glass well and polish it. Repeat the process as needed. * please use citric acid and vinegar cleaners only on the inside as the acid can attack the flower of life.
