Mandala Necklaces
The word "Mandala" is Sanskrit for "circle." Yet, they are much more than mere circles. Mandalas are ancient patterns drawn in an attempt to display the idea of a divine oneness that transcends the bounds of the physical world, the journey towards a cosmic spiritual center.
Exclusive: The ''Oneness'' Mandala Necklace
The "Oneness" Mandala necklace is a bright, colorful, two-part necklace set, like the piece worn by Jet Li and Carla Gugino in the 2001 film, The One. Chris Klamer, owner of the Mandala necklace used in the film, has chosen us to craft the "Oneness" Mandala necklace in its likeness.
Our Mandala is handcrafted and hand-colored in the four temple areas with enamel, surrrounding the lotus flower in its center.
Yin-Yang Necklaces
The yin-yang symbol, also known as the Tai Chi, originated from the Chinese classical text, the I-Ching, that observes the natural phenomenon of our universe. Ancient Chinese observers discovered the shape of the yin-yang symbol by tracing the pattern of an eight-foot pole’s shadow that was projected onto the ground at various times during the year. The white half, or the yin side, represents the sun, summer, and Woman; the dark half, or the yang side, represents the moon, winter, and Man. Yin and yang sides are forever in balance and one cannot exist without the other.
