Lotus
Rs.3,200
Rich lapis lazuli beads - sourced from the mines of Badakhshan, Afghanistan, the same mountain region that supplied lapis to ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia - are strung alongside a hand-shaped brass lotus charm in this adjustable bracelet. The stone's deep cobalt blue, shot through with natural pyrite flecks, brings a grounded density to what is otherwise a light, everyday piece.
The lotus charm is formed from brass, its petals traced individually rather than stamped from a mold - a detail that reads clearly up close. The cord adjusts to fit most wrist sizes and can be worn alone or layered with other pieces.
