Discover the story behind Venena Regalia. How a passion for ear gauges since adolescence turned into a chic and alternative gold jewelry brand. My journey, my vision, and why I only offer gold.
How awful.
My name is Morgane, I was 15, and my boarding school roommate, Carline (if you ever read this, hugs to you), used to make spiral ear tapers out of Fimo clay at home on the weekends. She sold them to me for 2 euros. I was young, and wasn't allowed piercings or tattoos. This stretch was my first body modification without my parents' permission. And I totally messed it up!
And then once it was done, what did I do?
Well, all the girls I followed on ...skyblog (yeah, I'm a '92 baby, right), they all had the same thing: silver tunnels. Very simple. Simple but effective.
And they suited me.
Until the day I no longer recognized myself with them..
Money didn't really align with me when I became an adult.
I wanted to be chic. It started with gold rings covering my fingers, then necklaces... AND there was that darn silver tunnel that I had now stretched to 19mm. It was ugly. Not at all in line with what I wanted to project: chic. Class. But never conforming to standards.
So I searched. I rummaged. I wanted beautiful jewelry for my stretched ears, gold-colored ONLY. And then I just couldn't find any.
I complained for a while and then I started making them myself at home, a few pairs here and there for my sister's wedding, then my father's, then a pair to wear to work...
And here I am today. Because I can't be the only one who searched for hours on every possible website, before settling for a super simple gold tunnel that was anything but feminine...
And for me too,
A little to reassure the young woman I used to be who didn't want to keep masculine jewelry but couldn't find any anyway;
For those who want to maintain their femininity through tunnels,
For those for whom wearing gold and silver has real meaning,
