DE-STRESSORIZE

anxiety relief takes the form of jewelry

"Stress is an epidemic among young generations; 86% of Millennials say they’re stressed, with Gen Z following suit. We’ve seen wearables that track emotions like stress, and now such tech is being used to do more than measure it. New offerings are going further by helping to relieve it.

CHARLOTTE GARNETT

British jewelry designer Charlotte Garnett struggled with anxiety during her time at art school, which inspired her highly requested collection, “Cure for the Itch.” The line was designed to aid in calming anxiety-driven actions such as smoking or fiddling. The collection is comprised of three sub-collections, each serving a different purpose in relieving anxiety. Pocket Pebbles aid in subconscious nervous habits with their fidget-friendly shapes; Spinner Rings calm faster fiddling actions and are disguised in the shape of cocktail rings; Fiddle Sticks are for nervous smokers; the design is reminiscent of a cigarette packet with six fiddlesticks to play with instead of resorting to smoking."
