We are pleased to announce our Navaratnas are now also available in India. For more details, please contact us.
The
Cloud Design, worn mostly by women, has a narrower spring
band. Because of difficulty in setting gems in these blanks,
the setting charge is $15 more than the Standard Design.
There are sometimes constraints in gem size due to the narrower
links. One may not notice looking at this picture, that each
blank is a slightly different size, so that the gems will
fit aesthetically. We have nine different sized links
for various gem sizes. The spring link is 1/2 an inch in
width.

Gold nine gem bangle
This
is our most popular design. For the first few years, it was
the only design we offered, but then some of our female clients
asked us to come up with a more slender, artistic looking
design. As with all of our Ayurvedic Jewelry, the gems are
set so that they touch the skin.

The
bangle can also be worn as a bracelet when using only
seven gems. The design incorporates saving expense on
the 22kt gold by having the gems set in solid silver
blanks before the gold chakra cover is soldered into
position.
Each
link represents the chakra for that particular gem and
they are placed in their natural order. The design is unique
to Ayurvedic Astrological Jewelry and has taken a long
time to develop. It is designed to be ergonomically comfortable
and built to withstand a lifetime of normal wear and tear!
Some
clients are very particular about the cosmetic appeal of
jewelry and thus this design may cater to them. However
from a perspective of potency I am afraid this design is unable
to accommodate some of the larger stones due to the proportions
of the setting blanks.We only commission this design for
clients who purchase seven or nine gems. All the
work is done at our office workshop.
It
generally takes about three weeks from purchase of the
gems to receive the completed piece.

Bezel V Navaratna Design
This bracelet , anklet or upper arm bangle is called this because the gold around the gem is all thickened bezel and the extender arms are V shaped . The sideways V extenders are shortened or lengthened depending on the length and design requested.
Can be custom sized with spring links or made with an S bend clasp on large gold or silver chain links.
This design can be made in Silver or 14 carat gold. With the more delicate designs like the Bezel V it is recommended to use 14 karat gold for long term durability.
Bezel Navaratna Design
multi gem anklet navaratna
Chakra Navaratna Design
Bezel set anklet or upper arm design bangle.Because the gems are bezel set in a length wise position this design is too long for the radius of the wrist and can not be worn as a bracelet. As the radius of many ladies wrists are often less than 7 inches . And so it can only be an anklet or made to fit just above the elbow. This is because such a design is always over 8 inches long.
This is the top view of the Bezel Anklet or Above Elbow Arm Bangle. It has no spring links to keep it in position on the arm so it can only be worn above the elbow or on the ankle. This similar design can be made to fit on the wrist, if the client chooses to use smaller stones or use less planetary gems.
This is the underside of the Bezel Anklet or Above The Elbow Bangle design.
One can observe how the gems are fully open in the back and easily able to have extensive skin contact.

When the gemstones are set in a way with the width of the gemstone going along the length of the arm then it can be made short enough to fit as a wrist bracelet.
The distance from end to end is much less and can accommodate a 6 inch wrist.
THE CONSTELLATION NAVARATNA DESIGN IS A TRADITIONAL ANCIENT DESIGN. THE RUBY REPRESENTING THE SUN IS IN THE MIDDLE WITH ALL THE OTHER PLANETARY GEMS AROUND IT.
EACH CONSTELLATION DESIGN IS A LITTLE DIFFERENT DEPENDING ON THE SHAPES AND SIZE OF THE GEMSTONES.
The Classical Navaratna Design was created to give the same astrological benefits given by all of our navaratnas while having the aesthetic quality of classical Italian art.
The appearance of the Classical Design may differ slightly depending on the gemstones you select. Contact us if you would like to create a custom design.
The Celtic Design can be made as either a bracelet or bangle.
Expanded
Contracted
Most of our bangle designs use these expandable
spring links to ensure comfort. As
you can see from the two photos above, the spring loaded links
expand so that when you flex your
arm, the bangle expands with it. Wearing the bangle just above the biceps is comfortable, convenient, and promotes the bangles' function.

brother Roger's standard design in gold. After many years of
use, still as comfy as ever. Please notice how the bangle is
best situated between the biceps and deltoid.

Over the 26 years we have been making ayurvedic astrological bangles, we have done extensive experimental research and analysis. There exists so much non-empirical supposition and hearsay concerning the benefits of gemstones that, in order to clear away the fog, we constantly listen to our clients feedback and keep a tab on response trends. This large gemstone bangle is the result of much of our exciting research and is aptly called the meditation bangle. Eventually we hope to have bangles specifically for depression and other psychological challenges. But for the time being we're happy to introduce the meditation bangle on account of its ability to increase one's mental clarity while engaged in meditation techniques. It is not a bangle meant to replace the traditional and time-tested astrological navaratna bangle, but acts as incredible supplement to it. To read more on this bangle go to www.frequencybangles.com
