Knowledge & Wisdom

History

Czar-endorsed medicinal use

Modern & Scientific Use

• Peter the Great’s water purifiers • Fullerenes neutralize EMF

Emotional & Body Association

Immune support, stress reduction

Archetype

The Shield: dense, matte, and quietly solid—a symbol of boundaries, filters, and taking breaks from noise.

Grid Design & Feng Shui

(Minimalist, tech-adjacent styling without promising protection.) Theme: “Off-Switch on the Desk” Placement Concept: • Near charging stations, routers, or work laptops as a visual reminder to log off. • Presentation: On a coaster, slate tile, or metal dish to echo its industrial feel. • Shape Layout: Cubes or tiles in a straight line; pyramids standing like tiny signal towers. • Lighting: Low, side lighting to emphasize its matte texture. • Avoid: Water immersion for non-elite varieties; prolonged soaking can weaken crumbly pieces.
