Gemstones & Stones

Natural gemstones and stones — from the Vedic navaratna to sphatik crystal and popular crystal-healing stones — set as jewellery or carried loose. Two distinct lineages sit under this collection: the nine Vedic astrological gems (navaratna — ruby, pearl, red coral, emerald, yellow sapphire, diamond, blue sapphire, hessonite and cat's eye), each traditionally linked to one of the nine navagraha (celestial bodies) in Jyotisha; and stones such as tiger's eye, pyrite and lava rock, whose popular meanings come mainly from more recent global crystal-healing custom rather than classical Vedic text. Many wearers choose a stone for the quality its tradition assigns it — steadiness, clarity, protection — as a matter of personal or astrological preference.
