Here's a new 24k Gold /Pure Silver fidget/sensory coin. It's a version #1 prototype I'm currently dialing the details in on this design. I will be adding more textures and different patterns to future versions.

I like calling these #pocketpattys

You might know similair objects to be called:

Calming stones

Worry stones

Basically a stress relieving fidget/sensory tool that can be carried throughout the day in your pocket. When I find my mind wondering somewhere I feel it shouldn’t, I use these tools, combined with proper breathing exercises and other meditation techniques to help realign and reframe my mindset. I know it sounds like a bunch of garage but I like to think I'm dumping that negativity into the object I'm holding. Rubbing that anxiety deep into the pattern. Smothering that fire with the new sensations felt within the fingers and letting go my mind imagine the pattern.

This is just how my individual mind sees using these objects.

This 1st edition griffglass pocket patty contains the flower of life. Some random person on google once said "The Flower Of Life symbol is one of the most fascinating, well known, and recognized geometric symbols within the magical world of Sacred Geometry. This special symbol represents the cycle of life. It's believed that within this symbol, holds the most meaningful and sacred patterns of our universe as a whole."

I made this on Saturday 09/03/2022 in my Rhode Island home studio. I've been carrying it around in my pocket ever since. I really enjoy the size and weight of this coin in my hand as well as the sensation of pressing my thumbs deep into the pattern. I catch myself subconsciously fidgeting with this piece throughout the day. The next version will feature a ribbed coin edge for even more texture.
