CEMÍ - PLATAEste arete es mi versin de un cem tano. El cem es un concepto tano que designa una deidad o espritu ancestral a ciertos objetos. Para los tanos, dicho espritu viva dentro del cem. Esta versin del arete es de plata esterlina . 925. Segn relata el cronista Fray Ramn Pan en su obra Relacin acerca de las antigedades publicada en 1498: "Unos contienen los huesos de su padre y de sus antepasados; los cuales estn hechos de piedra o de madera algunos que

Este arete es mi versión de un cemí taíno. El cemí es un concepto taíno que designa una deidad o espíritu ancestral a ciertos objetos. Para los taínos, dicho espíritu vivía dentro del cemí. Esta versión del arete es de plata esterlina .925.

Según relata el cronista Fray Ramón Pané en su obra Relación acerca de las antigüedades publicada en 1498: "Unos contienen los huesos de su padre… y de sus antepasados; los cuales están hechos de piedra o de madera… algunos que hablan, y otros que hacen nacer las cosas que comen, y otros que hacen llover, y otros que hacen soplar los vientos."

La representación de los cemíes adoptó diversas formas, pero una de las más características es la de los "trigonolitos" que, como su nombre indica, son piezas de piedra labrada con forma triangular, parecido a una montaña. Cemíes de esta forma se encuentran mayormente en el oriente de la República Dominicana y en Puerto Rico.

Este arete está inspirado en una colección de cemíes encontrados en el interior de Puerto Rico. Lo llamativo de este tipo de cemí es su innegable parecido a los picos montañosos del Caribe. Sabemos que para los tainos sus dioses vivían en los picos más altos de las islas, por lo que se ha propuesto que este tipo de cemí representa a la divinidad creadora o a alguna otra fuerza natural.

Cada pieza se fabrica por encargo utilizando la antigua técnica de fundición "Cera Perdida". Por esa razón se le pide 1-2 semanas para la producción de su pieza.

This earring is my version of a Taíno "Cemí". The "Cemí" is a Taíno concept that designates an ancestral deity or spirit to certain objects. For the Taínos, this spirit lived inside the "Cemí". This version is solid sterling silver.

As recounted by the chronicler Fray Ramón Pané in his work "List of Antiquities", published in 1498: "Some contain the bones of his father ... and of his ancestors; which are made of stone or wood ... some that speak, and others that give birth to the things they eat, and others that make it rain, and others that make the winds blow. "

The representation of the "Cemíes" took different forms, but one of the most characteristic is that of the "trigonolites" (three-pointers) which, as their name suggests, are pieces of stone carved with a triangular shape, similar to a mountain. Trigonolite "Cemíes" are found especially in the eastern Dominican Republic and in Puerto Rico.

This earring is inspired by a collection of "Cemíes" found in the interior of Puerto Rico. I was inspired by the shape of these "Cemíes" for their undeniable resemblance to the mountain peaks of the Caribbean. We know that the Taíno gods lived on the highest peaks of the islands, which is why it has been proposed that this type of Cemí represents the divine creator or some other natural force.

Each piece is made to order using the ancient "Lost Wax" casting technique. For this reason, 1-2 weeks are required for the production of your piece.

Very good
Size: 1.1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Pros: -very moisturizing for dry skin. Leaves skin glowy AF. Avoid if you’re oily. -The pigment is great. Doesn’t look orange -Doesn’t burn eyes at all. -Rubs in easy Cons: -Is kind of greasy. Once it dries, it’s okay but it takes a little while to dry. It’s really not that bad though, especially if you have dry skin and want a super glowy look. -Smells kind of strong. It doesn’t have that typical coconut, fragranced smell like traditional sunscreens do. It says it’s fragrance free but it does have this distinct sunscreen smell. I don’t mind it, but it is very noticeable. -The tint doesn’t provide any coverage for blemishes or anything like that. I think it sort of helps balance out skin tone and a bit of texture, but overall it doesn’t provide any coverage. -It’s on the smaller side. For 18 bucks, It’d be nice to get a larger tube. But I think it’s worth it because the formula is very nice for a drugstore brand. Overall, very good sunscreen especially for drugstore.

Perfect Daily Sunscreen – No White Cast
Pattern Name: Clear, Pattern Name: Clear
I am very satisfied with this sunscreen. It is transparent, does not leave a white cast, and doesn’t feel greasy on the skin. It absorbs quickly and feels very lightweight. I have used it on both my face and body, and it feels comfortable all day. It’s perfect for daily use because it doesn’t feel heavy, even under makeup. It also provides good sun protection and did not cause any irritation. I would definitely buy it agai

It Does the Job, but I Wasn’t Fully Impressed
Pattern Name: Light
The product does provide sun protection, and the packaging is practical for carrying in a purse or when traveling. Also, the light tint can be useful for anyone looking for a quick and simple option for the face. However, in my experience, it was not a product that really stood out. The texture and finish may not work the same way for every skin type, and the tint may not look equally natural on everyone. I would not say it is bad, but it did not become one of my favorites.
