Cortisol is a steroid hormone produced by the adrenal gland and is released into the body due to stress and low blood glucose levels. As a medicine, it is called Hydrocortisone and is used to treat adrenal, skin and respiratory conditions.
 
This unusual necklace of the cortisol molecule has been printed on a 3d printer using a plant based polymer called PLA. This particular polymer has wood fibres in it so the printed piece looks and feels like wood.
 
If you're looking for an unusual gift for someone, this necklace would be perfect.
Supplied on a silver plated chain.
