From the Ancient Library of Alexandria to the Library of Congress, from Plato's Academy to the most esteemed modern universities of the world, our global civilization's legacy of knowledge is drawn from our willingness to to do four things: think, study, learn, and teach. Without these, the chain of human knowledge is broken.
This striking necklace features a weathered silver aluminum disc, hand-stamped with the words "contempla stude disce erudi". Students of Latin may notice that this translation of "think study learn teach" not only represents each the four conjugations of Latin verbs, but does so in the correct order. The aniqued silver chain measures 32 inches and matches everything. The disc moves freely through the jump rings, symbolizing the unending, cyclical nature of this process, creating a unique meditation on the process of gaining, sharing, and preserving knowledge.
Perfect for:
My sister is a professor so I got her this necklace for her birthday. She was thrilled with it and is enjoying wearing it. I have never been disappointed in a purchase from this company. Wonderful customer service and creative and beautiful pieces. Thank you!
Beautiful necklace and have gotten so many compliments! Thank you for making my mother’s day!
I love you guys! Every special occasion you guys are my first stop.
Special request: I want a Fibonacci scarf!
I ordered three necklaces. They were all beautiful and wonderfully unique. My two best friends and myself will wear them proudly.
My daughter loves her gift and told us your story! Impressive!

Bought this as a gift for my daughter and was impressed with the quality. Shipping was quick and the necklace arrived in great condition. Would definitely place another order in the future!
Delighted with my purchases. The adjustability of the Pleiades necklace is a real plus, and the chain on the dopamine necklace appears surprisingly high-quality, considering the low price.
Gave this necklace as a gift to my niece who is studying biology and she loved it! I was so happy to find someone who was selling these unique gifts.
My wife, the scientist, loved the earrings that I purchased. It was the perfect gift. And the service was excellent too.
Gave the pi earrings and carbon atom earrings to my girlfriend. She completely dorked out on both designs. Easy order. On time delivery. Product exactly as promised.
Much nicer than I expected. Purchased for a young lady who just graduated with a Bachelors degree in mathematics. I haven’t heard if she likes it yet, but how could she not?
I ordered the sloth tarigrade necklace for my daughter,,,,,it was shipped & received very quickly. She loved it & so did i!! Would definitely order from Boutique Academia again!
I wish every company you make purchases from on the internet offered the same experience. But then Boutique Academia would still find a way to outdo itself.
My necklace is darling. I wear it all the time. I haven’t worn it in the shower as I know better but it is easy to forget it’s on my neck, since it is so comfortable.
The only thing I wish is that they offered a Rose Gold option. 99% of the jewelry I wear is rose gold (rings, earrings, bracelets) so I’d get a rose gold necklace of the same kind in a heartbeat.
However, that’s my personal preference and clearly it hasn’t prevented me to adapt for sake of wearing something special.
If you’re on the fence about your purchase, go ahead fearlessly, their system will notify you of every step along the way! Even when your item is already in the mailbox. Bravo!!!!!!
Nice looking, Gift for graduate. She thought it was cool
I love the golden ratio, and couldn't resist these earrings (even though I really shouldn't have been spending the money right now). Sadly haven't had the chance to wear them much (dangly earrings + ear mask don't play nice), but I've tried them on. Nice and light, super cute, and even came with a cleaning cloth. <3
I’m very happy with them! They look exactly like a real heart.
When I saw the image of a waterbear ambling across a cord in a sloth-like hanging posture, I knew I had to get it. So much more fun that seeing one with a ring screwed into its back! ;) When it arrived I had to take pics and post on social media, and my biologically-inclined friends filled the comments with appreciative prose. I really appreciate the accuracy of the proportions and even the limb attitudes. Very very well done. A+
I bought it as a farewell gift for my boss who is an immunologist that works on vaccines, and SHE LOVED IT!
Beautiful detailed brain earrings. Just the things to divert the zombies! No, seriously - they're beautifully crafted and fun!
Bought this for my girlfriend for her college graduation. She loves neuroscience and she loved it!! Thank you so much!
I not only enjoyed the uniqueness of the products, they had very good quality. I had problems with the delivery service but Boutique Academia took care of it and helped me. I personally liked the quality and aesthetics of the molecule shaped earings more than the necklaces.
Hello. I ordered 2 necklaces; a Tardigrade necklace and a molecular necklace. They came very quickly. I really, really like them! The Tardigrade necklace is quite the conversation piece. It is so unique. The molecular necklace, I got for my niece. She loves it. She shows it to everyone. Thanks so much and keep up the good work!
What an original business. Our niece is brilliant in the sciences. Honestly, she will find a cure to some disease! The necklace we chose was perfect for her! “She Who Dares Wins” So true...
I purchased speed of light necklace and Fibonacci earring for my daughter, who is a university student majoring in physics, she loved it. The jewelry is good quality and very well made, and the items were nicely packed and showed up in my mailbox quickly. I am so glad I found this source for unique gifts for my STEM friends! I am a physicist myself, and I hope the selection of physics-related items will grow, so I have gifts for all my physics friends.
A friend sent me the tardigrade necklace as a gift, and I was pleasantly surprised and pleased with the quality and solid heaviness of the tardigrade pendant. I love it so much I decided to pay it forward, so ordered another one to send to another tardigrade-loving friend, and she loves hers!
An adorable little badass you can carry with you to find your own resilience when you need it most. Smaller and easier to wear than the vertical one, with satisfying little toes to play with as you gaze into the abyss.
I LOVE MY NECKLACE!! It is cute and fun and educates my kids.
The kids and I purchased earrings for my wife for Mother's Day. While she received several gifts, she continued to comment on how much she loved the earrings!
I live with strong women. This necklace epitomizes how I feel about Heather and how she bravely attacks her challenges. Thank you for making it!
They were a birthday present for my niece who is an architecture student. She knew what they were immediately and she loves them. It was really nice to find a place devoted to jewelry that represents the sciences and professions. Things that have special meaning to those who try to find order in the world.
The pieces I bought were all beautifully made and unique. I like wearing interesting pieces that people ask me questions about.
Our daughter was excited to receive the heart necklace, which arrived on time as promised.
I have purchased the black hole necklace and earrings, Fibonacci necklace and earrings, and two tardigrade necklaces (my 6 year-old son loves tardigrades, we each have one). They are all beautiful, well designed, and better quality than the price might suggest. The earrings are light weight and comfortable and the necklaces are thoughtfully designed. I will definitely be purchasing more jewelry from them.
I bought 2 necklaces for my wife and one for my sister. My wife’s face lit up when she saw them. Perfectly captured what she stood for! “She who dares wins!”
I bought a tardigrade necklace and an atomic necklace, and I'm in love with both!
I absolutely love my Ad Astra Per Aspera Necklace from Boutique Academia. I've worn it nearly ever day since receiving it. The leather cord can be easily adjusted without removing the necklace and both the cord and the Ad Astra Per Aspera pendant are great quality and will hold up for a long time.
As a women working in a STEM field, I love that a company like Boutique Academia exists, for my sake and also for young girls and women in these fields. Thank you for making these beautiful pieces! I already have my eye on several other items.
