Chakra is an energy center or vortex. Your body has seven major chakras. I decided to make chakra jewelry after studying the chakra system. Many cultures use this system which is called by different names. I use the Sanskrit chakra symbols on the corresponding lotus flower. Read about each chakra and pick one or more out to suit your needs. If you're still not sure, go with the one that is most attractive to you.
Each chakra pendant may be purchased on antiqued silver chain or on a beaded chain with the stone that corresponds to that chakra. For example, Crown with amethyst, Third Eye with lapis, Throat with turquoise or aquamarine, Heart with jade or variscite, Solar Plexus with amber, Sacral with carnelian or orange coral, Root with garnet or red coral.
Each Chakra pendant is made with sterling silver and 14K gold inlay.
