The Sultry Nature Collection

Elements Collection
The Sultry Nature Collection is something I have been working on for years tbh.
It started the very first course I took where I realized that my style was abstract and ever flowing much like nature. Since I work with yinyoga I often come back to the five elements according to Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), and it has always found its way back into my art. With the different shapes and energies I put into the rings I wish to boost or balance the elements within.
We all consist of the five elements, as does nature itself. The trick is to keep the balance.
The collection is a reminder of natures inquestionable shapes and colors and I just love to express that same vibe in jewelry. I also love symbolism, tarot, meditation,
yoga and folklore and I want my jewelry to reflect that.
The Elements Collection is an extension on The Sultry Nature. I wanted to work with gemstones and incorporate the gems into my style of work. Still focusing on the five elements but with the five colors they have which are yellow (earth), white (metal), blue (water), green (wood) and red (fire).
The rings are scultped in lost wax and then cast into 925 Sterling silver.
Any stones are set after casting and all rings are hand stamped and polished.
You can see and try the rings at Pompa Shop, WOS store and APlace in Stockholm and Gothenburg.

The Five Elements According To
Traditional Chinese Medicine
Earth: Associated with the color yellow and signifies stability, nurturing, and balance. Those with too much earth energy may need to consider avoiding over-nurturing others and prioritizing self-care. Conversely, individuals lacking earth energy might benefit from establishing routines and creating a sense of stability in their lives. Balancing earth involves providing support while maintaining boundaries and self-nourishment.
Metal: Metal is linked with the color white or metallic hues and represents strength, clarity, and precision. Those with excess metal energy may need to reflect on flexibility and openness to change.
Conversely, individuals deficient in metal energy could
focus on cultivating organization and refining their communication skills.
Balancing metal involves embracing
structure while remaining adaptable and open-minded.
Water: Associated with the color blue or black and symbolizes wisdom, adaptability, and flow.
Those with an abundance of water energy may need to consider managing fear and embracing trust in the unfolding of life. Conversely, individuals lacking
water energy might benefit from seeking
stillness and tapping into their intuition more deeply.
Balancing water involves navigating life's ebbs and flows with grace and resilience.
Wood: Associated with the color green, wood symbolizes growth, creativity, and flexibility. Those with an excess of wood energy may need to consider fostering patience and embracing adaptability. Conversely, individuals lacking wood energy might benefit from cultivating assertiveness and making decisions more confidently. Balance in the wood element involves nurturing growth while maintaining resilience.
Fire: Represented by the color red, fire embodies passion, enthusiasm, and transformation. Those with excessive fire energy may need to reflect on moderation and channeling emotions effectively. On the other hand, individuals deficient in fire energy could focus on igniting their passions and expressing themselves more openly. Balancing fire involves harnessing enthusiasm while
managing intensity and emotional expression.

When ordering your ring you need to know your ring size. If you don’t know it you can go to your local jeweller to have your finger measured.
You can also measure it yourself at home.
1. Wrap a string around your finger just so it’s perfectly around and not choking your finger.
2. Mark the point where the strings intersect and cut.
3. Measure the string with a ruler.
4. Use the ring size chart (last column in mm) to find your ring size.
