gemstones

Chakras align in the form of seven faceted gemstones held within a sterling silver figure in a meditative pose. Alok Jain's pendant necklace is simple yet elegant in its design as it represents the seven centers of spiritual energy found in the body when practicing yoga or meditating. Red garnet depicts the foundational root chakra, with a carnelian stone above it for the sacral chakra, which relates to accepting change. Yellow citrine for the solar plexus chakra stands for confidence, and green peridot for the heart chakra and love. Blue topaz for communication sits in the throat chakra position, and the figure's head holds iolite for the focusing third eye chakra. The line is finished at the top with a purple amethyst, held aloft, representing the crown chakra that promotes spiritual connection.

Sterling silver tendrils surround a creamy cultured pearl like a halo. Set with colorful faceted gemstones, the pendant brings rainbow colors to this necklace design. Shubhra Singh selects a bright medley of garnet, smoky quartz, onyx, and white topaz that mingle with peridot, iolite, amethyst and citrine in this exquisite handcrafted necklace.

Sarote Lochotinunt in Thailand creates a pendant necklace with a rainbow of gems to represent the seven main chakras or energy channels within the body. The sterling silver bar pendant is set with round faceted amethyst, blue topaz, citrine, garnet, iolite and peridot. The sparkling pendant centers a sterling silver rolo chain.

The Muladhara or root chakra, associated with the color red, governs sexuality and security. The Svadhishthana or sacral chakra is associated with the color orange; it represents relationships and emotional needs. Associated with the color yellow, the Manipura or solar plexus chakra governs personal power and fear. The Anahata or heart chakra, associated with the color green, governs unconditional love and tenderness. Vishuddha, the throat chakra, is associated with light blue and governs communication and thought. The Ajna or third-eye chakra, associated with blue-violet, is linked to consciousness and intuition. Finally, the Sahasrara or crown chakra is associated with the color white and represents inner wisdom.

Dazzling with bright colors, each gem on this necklace symbolizes a different chakra point. Meaning "wheel," chakra refers to the points of spiritual and physical energy in the human body. Violet, indigo, blue, green, yellow, orange and red represent the crown, brow, throat, heart, solar plexus, sacral and root. For this bar necklace Sarote Lochotinunt selects garnet, Madeira citrine(orange), citrine, peridot, topaz, iolite, and amethyst.
