sleeping robe

Drawing inspiration from New York City, Efrain Espinoza handcrafts a bewitching accessory featuring agate, carnelian, hematite and jasper. With their intense colors, the bracelet finds an intriguing contrast in a single stainless steel globe.

"With this design, I want to represent the vibrant energy of the city that never sleeps. To represent the bold, energetic people who love life in the city — its changes and revolutions. Leaders by nature with that enchanting spark," the artisan confides.

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.

Sparkling gemstones decorate the serene face on this pendant necklace from Bali's Komang Suastra. Carved from bone, the pendant is embellished with a sterling silver headdress, a citrine and garnet gem, and two amethyst beads. The entire pendant dangles from sterling silver borobudur chain that fastens with a hook clasp.
