Red blood cell earrings | sterling silver
Two biconcave discs, one per ear — the cell that keeps every other cell alive.
The Science of the Red Blood Cell
Red blood cells are the oxygen delivery system of the body. Their biconcave disc shape is not decorative — it is the solution to a specific engineering problem: how to maximise gas exchange surface, maintain deformability in narrow capillaries, and pack haemoglobin efficiently into a membrane-bound volume. The result is a cell of elegant simplicity, produced at a rate of two million per second in healthy bone marrow.
