Multicolored dewdrops bathe the sterling silver flower that centers this necklace from Alok Jain. The seven gems are chosen by virtue of their colors, each associated with a chakra point. In this necklace, amethyst is related to both the seventh or crown chakra associated with wisdom, and the sixth at the center of the forehead and associated with intuition. Blue topaz and iolite are associated with the fifth chakra, that of communication, and peridot corresponds to the fourth chakra, that of love and compassion. The third chakra's yellow hue of inner power is matched by citrine's glow and carnelian matches the second chakra, that of emotion and sexuality. Garnet's red glow is associated with the first chakra situated at the base of the spine, which corresponds to stability and security.
