Sadhu board copper nails
Copper has a beneficial effect on the body. Metal is a strong antiseptic. It has long been noticed that copper treats not only many bodily diseases, but also relieves mental illness! This is explained simply - this metal has a high conductivity. Copper increases the intensity of energy circulation throughout the body.
Therefore, our sadhu board copper nails are perfect for everyone.
The copper nail aspect is the mother aspect. The action is deep and voluminous. Copper has a very unusual, incomparable color: it resembles the reflections of fire and the burning heat of autumn leaves.
Galvanized nails
Galvanized nails also act deeply, but the sensations are brighter, sonorous, comparable to the parental aspect.
The galvanized nail is simple in its appearance, but no less attractive. Products with Galvanized nails are noticeably lighter in weight.
Сopper-plated nails
We have already talked about copper: it is a unique metal with a wide range of useful properties, but, unfortunately, expensive. If you choose a board with copper-plated nails, you get all the useful properties of the metal, but do not overpay.
Also, a significant plus of copper-plated steel is that it has greater rigidity than copper (copper is considered a soft metal), that is, the nails will always remain sharp.
Copper-plated nails are considered more durable than galvanized ones.
The Sadhu board with copper-plated nails looks noble, strong and reliable.
Combination of copper and zinc
Copper-galvanized nails are harmony. Here you can feel the aspects of the two metals and their harmonious influence on each other. The aesthetics of this board pleases the eye and the soul.
