Also described as “Drifters” or “Wanderers” Plankton are a group of organisms that rely on the winds, currents, and tides of the ocean to get from one place to another. Plankton are building the base level of the marine food web - but not only as a food source but also as a carbon sink the wellbeing of plankton is essential for a future of humanity.

Inspired by the calcium carbonate scales called coccoliths building a sphere around the nucleus of the Rhabdosphaera Clavigera the shape of these Necklace Links developed. This species belongs to the Coccolithophores and are unicellular phytoplankton.
