| Each pendant in the Chakra Series is created by artist and jewelry designer Karla Refojo. They are handcrafted of copper repousse, a traditional metal working process of the Newari community of Nepal that requires great skill to master. Each piece is fused with 24 karat gold and set with gemstones that harmonize with each chakra according the Vedic tradition, yielding a uniquely exquisite piece of wearable art. The fourth centre is called the Anahatha chakra, meaning the heart center. It has twelve petals and is located behind the sternum in the spinal cord. This center produces anti-bodies until the age of twelve and then these anti-bodies are circulated throughout the whole body to be ready to fight any kind of challenge to the body or mind. The heart center governs the cardiac plexus. The Anahatha pendant is set with a tourmaline, aquamarine or garnet gemstone. |
