natural gemstone jewelry

Sumptuous details worthy of a queen distinguish this original pendant bracelet from Buana in Bali. A sleek cabochon of black onyx centers the design, flanked by petite oval cabochons of natural garnet. The gemstones are set in ornate and substantial settings of sterling silver, lavished with the bubble and wire motifs traditional in Balinese jewelry design. Naga-style chain encircles the wrist to complete the design, and the bracelet is secured by a sterling silver toggle clasp.

Glistening gemstones align with chakra energies on the basis of their color, inspiring these pinwheel earrings from Alok Jain. In Sanskrit, chakra refers to an energy vortex through which vital universal forces are channeled, and there are believed to be seven in the human body. When all seven are aligned the person feels a healthy sense of well being. This pair of sterling silver earrings includes amethyst, iolite, citrine, peridot, garnet, clear quartz , and carnelian. 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 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.
