Have you ever thought what the short green, orange or yellow grass like carpets which adorn mountain rocks are called? -They are called lichen.  Lichens are some of the most amazing living things on this planet. Lichen is a symbiosis. That means it is two or more organisms living together, such that both are more successful within the partnership than they would have been if they were living on their own. They consist of two dissimilar organisms, an alga-phycobiont  and a fungus-mycobiont.

Lichen is truly nature’s love story, a symbol of love, where two different species can’t exist without each other. It takes the precise species of fungus and algae to come together, in just the right environment, to create a lichen. The two soulmates coexist in a symbiotic bond with equal cooperation, both providing vigor to the relationship. The fungus is the protector; providing structure and safety. Algae is the nurturer; using photosynthesis to create food.

People use in food, medicine, for making dyes, in perfume manufacture, in decorations and in science.

Bearing the meaning of love of two different species which can’t exist without each other this bracelet is a true gift to the person you love.

Marina Mar Exclusive is proudly presenting you its unique items hand crafted from purely natural products such as sterling silver, wild flowers and tree leaves covered by natural coniferous species resin. The items are created and shaped by hand on the spot inspired by the flowers and leaves our craftsman chooses to combine together. Our craftsman curves these beautiful pieces of art by hand and in most cases he doesn’t use molds to make them. Handmade items can never be 100 % identical and some of our products can never be re-created again even by our craftsman himself.  This is why we put the photos of the exact item you are going to buy. Our collection is exclusive and one of a kind so if you like any of our items, please, don’t hesitate to make your purchase before it is gone.

Resin produced by conifer trees protects them from mechanical or insect damage: it flows, and then hardens to seal the wound site of the tree.

Humans have used resins for thousands of years.

The British Empire used resin for its navy. It was used to waterproof rope and tarps, and to seal the seams of wooden ships. Resin is also used for skateboards to prevent cracking, chipping, and breakage. Resin had medical and cosmetic applications too: Pine resin has been traditionally used in medicine and cosmetics for its anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties.
