10k Gold Navaratna Mandala Pendant. 2" Natural + Lab Multi-Gems

For sale is a large 10k gold mandala-style filigree pendant set with nine auspicious gemstones in the classic Navaratna (or Navratna) design. Navaratna means "nine gems" in Sanskrit, referring to a traditional combination of nine precious stones associated with the nine celestial bodies of Vedic astrology, or Navagrahas.

Worn in jewelry, Navaratna symbolizes wealth and status and is believed to bring balance, well-being, and harmony by balancing the energies of the planets for the wearer. This pendant is a beautiful variation on the traditional nine-gem composition, slightly domed with a star-like mandala pattern and an articulated bail set with a pearl.

The pendant is crafted of solid 10k yellow gold and set with a combination of natural and lab-created gemstones. 

This is a striking piece of jewelry with a wonderful designer look. It wears beautifully at the neckline but also looks stunning on a longer chain where its mandala form can shine.
