Deer antler comes from red deer in the vast forests of Europe and Asia. Each antler grows anew year after year, is shed and renewed, a cycle of regeneration that symbolizes life, growth and permanence. Its branched forms carry the energy of the forest, earth and freedom within them, and its structure invites you to consciously feel closeness and intensify sensual touch.

It was also processed in folk medicine to promote vitality and energy flow, an ancient reminder that all life circulates and energy is passed on.
