New Blood Entry — Chewelry by Extra
Orbit Extra (Mars) / 2025
Stimming is defined as a self-regulating repetitive behavior. Approximately three in ten people stim, and chewing stims — like biting your nails — are the most prominent, and often lead to injury and stigmatization. One of the main solutions is chewelry, silicone-based chewable jewelry. However, nearly all chewelry is made and designed for children. The other popular reprieve is gum. By combining these solutions and creating a fashion-forward customizable line of chewelry (embedded with capsules of gum), Extra has the opportunity to destigmatize stimming and give people with chewing stims something they can safely and unabashedly chew on. Introducing: Chewelry by Extra.
