versatile gifts

A jewel for each chakra center—Abhishek Singla's newest pendant necklace invites you to live in harmony and peace with an ethereal creation by Thai artisans. The team works with sterling silver to create this necklace, whose spiral pendant holds faceted amethyst, iolite, blue topaz, peridot, citrine, carnelian and garnet jewels.

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.

Using round and rectangular gemstones, artisan Babun Dey of India creates this striking pair of dangle earrings. They feature the glow of alluring carnelian set in a sterling silver bezel.

Commanding attention with its fiery charm, this breathtaking pendant necklace features a radiant carnelian stone dramatically framed by lustrous cultured pearls and embraced by brilliant gold plating. The contrasting oxidized sterling silver cable chain creates a striking backdrop that highlights the pendant’s vivid colors while draping gracefully around the neck. Peruvian artisan Silvia Garcia masterfully balances timeless gemstone beauty with contemporary design elements in this versatile, bold accessory.

Peru’s Patricia Jara creates a pair of unique spiral-themed sterling silver drop earrings featuring richly hued carnelian gemstones that add a touch of bold color to an already striking design, resulting in a piece that is both contemporary and elegant. Anyone looking to make a statement with their jewelry collection should add these exquisite and versatile earrings to their repertoire.

A fiery sun of carnelian seems to glow from within on this cocktail ring from Nyoman Rena. The cabochon stone is set in sterling silver and surrounded by embellishments resembling sun rays and solar flares. Careful oxidization lends depth to the motifs.
