A Navratna, meaning 9 planets in sanskrit, is sacred in the Hindu culture and a piece of jewellery made with the 9 stones that represent the planets is protective and auspicious. The stones representing the planets are pearl, diamond, emerald, coral, ruby, yellow sapphire, hassonite garnet, blue sapphire & chrysoberyl cats eye. The ruby is always placed in the centre. We also offer a Navratna earring and bracelet design. Our jewellery is set in silver, plated in 18 carat gold vermeil. The plating is equivalent to 3 microns of gold. Pendant measurement: W1.5cm x H1.2cm Chain length: 40cm
