colorful jewelry

Colorful gems dangle from interlocking loops in earrings from Rituu's chakra jewelry collection. Crafted by hand, the sterling silver earrings feature amethyst, blue topaz, iolite, citrine, carnelian, garnet and peridot. Each gem is associated with a chakra on the basis of its color. The clear and light purple stones are associated with the 7th chakra (awareness and wisdom); the purple, violet and indigo gems with 6th chakra (insight and perception), and the blue or light blue with the 5th, that of communication and truth. Green and pink stones are for love and compassion, linked to the heart, on the 4th chakra. For inner power and will, the 3rd chakra is associated with yellow gems, whereas emotion and sexuality are linked to red and orange gems for the 2nd chakra. Black gems are used to stimulate the 1st chakra, that of stability and security.
