Caffeine Molecule Necklace

caffeine_molecule_necklace Here’s another one for the Dept. of Want It! Let’s pretend for a moment that you haven’t read the title of the post; that you’ve just seen the picture of that pendant. What would you say it was? Obviously, it is a representation of a molecule of some kind, right?

*Sigh* I am in love. Seriously. If there is one beverage that I cannot live without – aside from water, ok – it is coffee. I know that so many people say it is unhealthy; that too much caffeine is not good for you, and so on. But hey, once you taste my homemade brew, you would understand why I live off this stuff!

Going back to the pendant – yeah, it is a representation of the caffeine molecule. According to the guys at ThinkGeek, the pendant was designed by a “wayward Ph.D. post-grad in molecular biophysics.” The pendant measures in at 1.5 inches wide (that’s 3.81 cm) and is attached to a necklace that can be adjusted from 15 to 18 inches long (38.1 cm to 45.72 cm). The price tag? $84.99 (60.57GBP). Not a bad price since both pendant and chain are made of sterling silver.

Oh, and the whole thing comes packaged in a gift box – recycled of course – which also contains the necessary info to explain the caffeine molecule. Then again, you probably could explain it yourself, right?

If all jewelry pieces were designed in this way, I think that I would learn to love jewelry! (I really want this!!!)

Dept. of Want It?

More like the Dept. of Wasteful Consumption That’s Bloating Our Landfills With Junk, Producing Useless Environmental Waste, and Bankrupting Our Society With Vapid Consumerism.

@brian: umm, jewelry bloating our landfill? What about waterbottles, plastic bags, computer parts, mobile phones, batteries, newspapers, disposable cutlery… etc.
Come on, jewelry is meant to be kept and treasured. It serves its purpose well for what it is – something to make a girl feel pretty and special. Either you date a girl who doesn’t care for jewelry (which is fine) or more likely you’ve never given jewelry to a girl before … you take yourself mighty seriously …

As for necklace, it’s pretty cute for NOVELTY jewelry, although from what I know sterling silver jewelry isn’t supposed to be that expensive (?) I thought manufacturing sterling silver was actually relatively cheap (?)
