Edible Salt Necklaces

These Jewelry Pieces Feature Lickable Salt Pendants for Added Nutrients

— December 12, 2015 — Fashion
The Human Salt Lick necklaces creatively reimagine hard salt blocks animals such as cattle and horses lick on for added nutrient content for humans. The necklaces feature miniature cubes of pink salt fastened onto white rope that can be conveniently picked up and licked throughout the day. When not in use, the salt doubles up as an elegant piece of artisan jewelry hanging from the wearer's neck.

Himalayan pink salt is known for having a high quantity of negative ions making it ideal for the digestive track by boosting the body's metabolism and immune system among other benefits. The Human Salt Lick necklace creatively harnesses these benefits in a small cube of the pink salt by securing it using copper backing onto a chain of white rope for wearers to conveniently lick.
