The Bermuda Triangle by Rêve Jewellery & Accessories |
Nothing gets lost in this beautiful earring designed by our Director of Concept and Production, Duane Bennett. It's name and design gives a nod to the popular Bermuda Triangle. Some of you may not know exactly what the urban legend of the Bermuda Triangle is, so here is the first fun fact post to tell you all about it.
The Bermuda Triangle
Also known as the Devil's triangle, the Bermuda Triangle is an undefined region in the western part of the North Atlantic Ocean where aircrafts and ships have been said to mysteriously disappear.

Here is an extract from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
Some speculate that unknown and mysterious forces account for the unexplained disappearances, such as extraterrestrials capturing humans for study; the influence of the lost continent of Atlantis; vortices that suck objects into other dimensions; and other whimsical ideas. Some explanations are more grounded in science, if not in evidence. These include oceanic flatulence (methane gas erupting from ocean sediments) and disruptions in geomagnetic lines of flux.
Environmental considerations could explain many, if not most, of the disappearances. The majority of Atlantic tropical storms and hurricanes pass through the Bermuda Triangle, and in the days prior to improved weather forecasting, these dangerous storms claimed many ships. Also, the Gulf Stream can cause rapid, sometimes violent, changes in weather. Additionally, the large number of islands in the Caribbean Sea creates many areas of shallow water that can be treacherous to ship navigation. And there is some evidence to suggest that the Bermuda Triangle is a place where a “magnetic” compass sometimes points towards “true” north, as opposed to “magnetic” north.
Still, most official bodies do not attribute and extraterrestrial or supernatural explanations for any alleged disappearances within the triangle. Also, many disappearances have taken place all over the world and are not exclusive to the Bermuda Triangle.
One this is certain, nothing gets lost in this Bermuda Triangle earring designed by Duane Bennett.
