The seed

Every gem is a real kernel of Glass Gem corn, the heirloom rainbow corn saved and bred for decades by Carl Barnes, a farmer of Cherokee heritage. We grow it ourselves in Northern California, dry the cobs for a full year, and choose only the most luminous seeds. No two are alike.

Materials & care

Each seed is sealed in resin to protect its color and glow. Care for them like pearls: last thing on, first thing off.

  • Take off before swimming, showering, or the sauna
  • Keep away from perfume, lotion, and cleaners
  • Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth
  • Store in its pouch, out of direct sun

Before it was jewelry, it was alive.

Your gem began as a seed we planted in spring, tended through summer, and harvested in the fall. Then it rested on the cob for a full year before we chose it for you. You're wearing a season of our garden.
