Stimm Jewelry Featured in New Book Showcasing Industry Leaders for Adaptive Clothing.

We are thrilled to share some exciting news - Stimm Jewelry was recently featured in the new digital book All About Adaptive: A Comprehensive Guide to Understanding Adaptive Clothing by Michelle Chung.

Published earlier this year, All About Adaptive offers an in-depth look at the world of accessible, adaptive fashion designed for people with disabilities. This incredible resource categorizes adaptive clothing into four main types: sensory, access, mobility and fit accommodations.

In the accessories section, Stimm Jewelry is showcased among the top designers and brands creating pieces that provide adaptive solutions for the wearer.

Some of our most popular sensory-based designs featured in the book include:

- The Stimm Fidget Ring
- The Stimm Necklace
- The Stimm Scent Necklace
- The Stimm Rubber Necklace

We carefully design each piece to provide subtle sensory input through sound, touch, movement and smell. Our aim is to create jewelry that helps regulate emotions, manages anxiety and calms the mind.

Being featured in All About Adaptive, alongside so many incredible adaptive brands, is a true honor. This book highlights the leaders in accessible fashion who are making a meaningful difference through design.

Understanding the market for adaptive clothing and how to make fashion more inclusive will only become more important in the years ahead. We hope this guide serves as an invaluable resource for all fashion professionals looking to expand their knowledge in this area.

At Stimm Jewelry, it is our ongoing mission to craft beautiful, meaningful pieces that can provide comfort, joy and sensory soothing for all people. Having our sensory-based designs and brand story highlighted in this book is an affirmation that we are on the right track.

If you are interested in the publication and would like to learn more about All About Adaptive, visit the website here.

This is an exciting step forward in making adaptive fashion more accessible to all!

The Year of Heart Jewelry - 2024

The trend forecasters say that 2024 will be a huge year for heart jewelry. We're always happy to hear such pronouncements, as we're incredibly proud of our Calming Heart Necklace (more about that later). In creating the Stimm Collection, however, we spent a lot of time studying the history of jewelry design.

STIMM Fidget Ring

The idea for the Fidget Ring was to create a perfect circle, with no bells and whistles. No details, no gemstones, no patterned angles. It sounds obvious, but fashion is based on the idea that tastes change and design should change with those tastes - or guide them.
Not for us at Stimm. We believe that there are universal ideas and it's not by chance that the wedding band - that symbol of eternal union - is just that: a simple band. A circle. We love the idea.

Our Enchanted Heart Shaped Pendant

The origin of our best-selling Heart Shaped Pendant stretches back, more than 30 years, to a small town in central Mexico. On a trip south, to spend some time in the jungles of Chiapas, on the Guatemalan border, we happened across a jewelry workshop that was handmaking perfect metal spheres with chimes inside. The sound was ethereal and wonderfully relaxing.

Fly With Stimm

For the first time, I recognized that there is a real place in today's world of travel for stimming jewelry. A calming necklace - or any form of calming jewelry - is a useful tool in focusing the senses and pushing away any anxiety associated with long journeys or a bumpy flight.

Leave It To Geege and Stimm. Hollywood Comes Calling.

I met Pootie - a character, a superstar, a force of nature - and learned a lot about autism. I also got to spend a bit of time with good friends in a little place called Athens, Georgia.

And that is the story of how Hollywood came knocking on Stimm's door.

Stimm Goes To Cuba

Without getting too philosophical, we read Shakespeare still, because he wrote about universal themes: love, loss, loyalty, betrayal. There's a bit of that in Stimm. Not those themes, but that which unifies us. We all need to find a balance in our lives, a calm in our everyday chaos, a reconnecting with our senses.

Sound, and how it affects our sense of wellbeing

Today, we speak about sound therapy as a conscious method of using sound to affect our physiology. In short, how sound can improve health and wellbeing.

Rembrandt and the Stimm Scent Necklace

Our Scent Necklace allows you to change the essential oil that you carry - via a small sponge in the pendant - from day to day, according to your mood. People speak of the calming effect of Lavender and Chamomile or the energizing effect of Peppermint and Lemon. The truth is that each person is different and we find ourselves reacting to scent in different ways; much of this is tied to memory.
