Lovely piece that can be worn with jeans, shorts, summer dress or just anything. I get lots of compliments on it. I had it engraved with the date we had the eclipse on the back. Great keepsake.
I bought the serotonin molecule necklace as a gift for my little sister. It arrived quickly, and already presentable in a lovely box. My sister loves the necklace and wears it every day. Thank you for such an amazing product!
This necklace is just beautiful! I've been wearing it to work and everybody keeps asking me where I got it. It is just as beautiful as seen on the pictures and I love the binoculars detail. I expected it to take weeks for it to arrive in Norway, but I got it really quickly. Anyone who loves travelling or just the world in general should get this!
Such a beautifully crafted piece of jewellery...and so will finished. Bought this for my niece. She loves it!
The earrings arrived in good time and were exactly as ordered. My daughter loved them. Others thought they looked like trees, which is exactly what neurons should look like. Thanks!
I love the necklace. Good quality, beautiful design and very nice packaging. It will be a high school graduation gift for my granddaughter who has been accepted toYale Univerisity on a full scholarship. She is majoring in Pure Math so can imagine how excited I was to find this website. No doubt I will purchase again from Boutique Academia and have already recommended it to friends.
Bought the bracelet for my daughter - she loved it and it reminds her of who she is and wants to continue to be! Great service and unique products!
Really pretty, perfect length. I've been looking for a necklace that has a saying that resonates with me and this is it. The Mobius design just adds to the meaning. Very happy I purchased!
The necklace arrived very quickly and is gorgeous! A gift for my son's Biology teacher. I'm sure the other teachers will be jealous!
I have exacting tastes in jewelry. I want it to be quirky, well made, and affordable. I am honestly astounded by the quality of Boutique Academia products. I bought the anatomical heart necklace a year ago and wear it at least once a week. The jump rings are sturdy and the chain is robust. I bought the brain slice earrings to match, and they are just the right weight and size. The details of the pieces are astounding. I hope to give this shop much more of my money in the future.
I get so many compliments on my necklaces and I love wearing them.
Love it! All the products are unique and elicit an inquiry and intrigue from friends and family. So suitable to the scientist in the family!
She called me after she got it (she knew she was getting it) and said it was good quality and now she's getting a tattoo of the it!
I have a bit of a love affair with mitochondria, so when I saw this, I just had to have it! I am so glad I did! It looks exactly like a gigantic mitochondrion, and I just love to sit and look at it, it is so detailed. It looks exactly the same as the photographs.
It also came packaged in a lovely black velvet pouch, which it lives in on the rare occasion I'm not wearing it!
A gift for my sister, who absolutely adores it, and the brainy brain keychain as well. Looking forward to ordering more smart shinies!
I like the necklace very much. Is there more to say than that?
Bought this necklace as a gift for my sister, who's a nursing student. She absolutely loved it, and spent a solid 5 minutes teaching us about the human heart. The chain is nice and sturdy, and the pendant is perfectly weighted.
This is a stunning piece. I love the look of the necklace, the beautiful thoughts on light and the donation to a worthy cause. It is a wonderful conversation piece and I love it. Brilliant idea.
Beautiful jewelry... Great price and quality .. Would definitely order again! Thank you

"Some part of our being knows this is where we came from. We long to return. And we can. Because the cosmos is also within us. We're made of star-stuff. We are a way for the cosmos to know itself."
--Carl Sagan
Here may be the only piece of jewelry in the world that attempts to capture our universe in such exquisite detail. In this magnificent pendant, we use an artist's logarithmic scale conception of the local region of the universe, with the Solar System at the center, inner and outer planets, Kuiper belt, Oort cloud, Alpha Centauri, Perseus Arm, Milky Way galaxy, Andromeda galaxy, and nearby galaxies.
Our miniature universe is microprinted on a translucent disc within a steel and glass locket. When worn, it looks like a stylized black pendant with a dark interior, matching everything. But when you hold it up to the light, incredible detail bursts into appearance. The graphic was created by Pablo Carlos Budassi, Mendoza, Argentina (G+, Facebook) and recently went viral online. The pendant comes with a heavyweight gunmetal chain, available in a short length (18 inches) or long length (32 inches).
