According to Renaissance alchemists, all material substances are made up of the “Tria Prima” or Three Primes: mercury (spirit), salt (body) and sulphur (soul).
It was thought that when the Primes were in balance, the body would be healthy and disease-free. These Primes also made up the alchemists’ most cherished prize - the
Philosopher’s Stone. A stone that was thought to transform any base metal into gold or silver, acting as an elixir of life and immortality.
Salt: Represented the feminine, the earth and the human body. A powerful preservative (the Egyptians used it in mummification), it was considered a path to immortality. Wear the Salt symbol bracelet to exude effortless femininity and the joy of earth-bound pleasures. Each Tria Prima bracelet is handmade in London for modern day alchemists and adventurers.
