Necklace made from amber, turquoise and silver
Long necklace made from cognac-colored amber beads, interspersed with turquoise and hand-forged silver beads. At the end is a pendant in the shape of a Bodhi leaf and small turquoise and coral beads. The necklace has a circumference of 88 cm and was handmade in Atelier Tibet in Zurich.
In Buddhism, the heart-shaped Bodhi leaf symbolizes enlightenment, wisdom and inner peace. It was under the Bodhi tree in Bodhgaya that Buddha attained enlightenment over 2500 years ago and realized the truth about suffering and liberation. It is considered a sign of awakening.
Amber is a warm, golden yellow gemstone made from fossil resin that is known for its protective and healing energy and is often used to promote joy, vitality and positive energy.
Turquoise is a bright blue to greenish gemstone that plays a central role in Tibetan jewelry. Traditionally, it is often used together with amber, coral and silver. In Tibetan culture, turquoise stands for protection, prosperity and spiritual strength. It is a symbol of the connection between heaven and earth. Believers often wear turquoise as an amulet or in prayer chains to attract good luck and positive energy. The jewelry is usually made by hand, which gives each piece an individual touch and is deeply rooted in Tibetan tradition.

Brief instructions for measuring ring size:
- Take a ring that fits well.
- Place it on a ruler and measure the inside diameter (from one inner edge to the other).
- Compare the diameter with the table to determine the ring size.
- Take a thin strip of paper or thread.
- Wrap it around the part of the finger where you want the ring to sit (not too tight).
- Mark the point where the ends meet.
- Measure the length of the strip in millimeters. This is the inner circumference.
- Find the right size in the table.
- Measure the finger size in the evening, as fingers swell slightly during the day.
- If you are between two sizes, choose the larger size.
- Make sure that the ring fits over the knuckle.
