History
Indian Jewelry with Navratnas has a very curious history from ancient India. It’s believed that the Hindu universe involves seven planets and two “nodes”. Together these are loosely referred to as nine planets. Each of the nine planets has corresponding celestial Gods, also known as the navagraha. The nine celestial Gods in turn are associated with nine gemstones, known as the navaratna.
Jewellery created in this style has important cultural significance in across many southern, and south-eastern Asian cultures as a symbol of wealth, status, and also as having other talismanic benefits to health and wellbeing. The setting of the stones is believed to hold mystical powers, tied to astrology, mythology and intrinsically linked to the Indian religions of Hinduism, Jainism and Buddhism. The nine gemstones known as navaratna includes gemstones – diamonds, pearls, ruby, sapphire, emerald, topaz, cat’s eye, coral and hyacinth or zircon. The word “ratna” refers to a precious stone.
