Local artisans craft it with petals of garnet, carnelian, citrine, peridot, iolite, and amethyst that circle a center of blue topaz. The sparkling faceted stones weigh over three carats altogether.

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 pendant necklace Sarote Lochotinunt selects garnet, Madeira citrine (orange), citrine, peridot, topaz, iolite, and amethyst.

Seven colorful gems share their natural energies in the design of this necklace. From Alok Jain, the sterling silver pendant is set with garnet, citrine, amethyst, iolite, carnelian, blue topaz, and peridot.
