Jewelry Created From Plasticized Human Milk

Milk can be turned into plastic by solidifying the casein it contains. French design team 'Duende' used this technique to turn human breast milk into a jewel, and then use that to make a necklace.

Duende's 'Perle de lait' range of jewellery imagines a new set of personalized post-natal objects. The breast-feeding mother sends a feeding bottle full of her milk to a laboratory where it is transformed into a gem-like substance that can be mounted on a neck-piece or any other form of jewellery.
