This beautiful pendant design is inspired by zebrafish. The zebrafish is an important model organism in human genetics and developmental biology because, like humans, it is a vertebrate, and it is genetically very similar to humans. 70% of the genes that are associated with disease in humans have functional homologs in zebrafish. In the laboratory, most genetic manipulations to this fish can instantly be observed because its larvae are transparent. In comparison to rats as a model system, zebrafish are easier to rear and produce more offspring. Zebrafish are currently being used as a model in research on cancer, multiple sclerosis, infectious diseases and many other human diseases.
The zebrafish pendant is 3.6 cm (1.4 in) long from mouth to tail.
The pendant is 3D printed in steel, gold plated steel, 14K gold plated brass, or sterling silver, finished with a 45 cm/18 inch long gold plated silver or sterling silver chain to match, and is ready for gift giving with a gift box, polishing cloth, and care instructions.
Please note: the video is a computer animation designed to show all sides of the pendant and may not accurately represent the color of the metal.
