Navratna Talisman
$132.00
Navratna, meaning “nine gems” in Sanskrit, is a sacred arrangement in Hindu tradition where each gemstone corresponds to a celestial body. Together, they are believed to bring harmony and astrological balance to the wearer.
This talisman is crafted from natural vegetable-tanned leather and hand-stitched with nine stones: Emerald, Yellow Sapphire, Cat’s Eye, Blue Sapphire, Hessonite, Coral, Pearl, Herkimer Diamond, and Ruby. Over time, the leather will deepen in color, developing a rich patina from sunlight and skin oils.
Measuring 2cm x 2cm, the pendant also holds a small pebble from the Pacific Ocean. It hangs from a 27-inch braided cotton cord with cream-colored tassels, and the length can be adjusted using a small silver bead.
