Tibetan Dorje Jewelry
Tibetan Dorje Jewelry
The bell and dorje, or thunderbolt, are inseparable ritual objects in Tibetan Buddhism, so they are common themes in Tibetan artisan jewelry. The dorje represents a thunderbolt of enlightenment, or the change in consciousness in the lives of mystics and saints.
The bell symbolizes wisdom and the dorje symbolizes method. Together, they represent the attainment of enlightenment. You'll find dorje symbols in stunning cuff bracelets, deeply carved rings, fabulous pendants and gorgeous earrings.
Tibetan dorje jewelry is among the most finely crafted in the world today. Skilled artisans use the same techniques that have been used for generations to create the most gorgeous silverworks and gem cuts.
Many Tibetan gem cutters and silversmiths practice their craft high in the mountains of Nepal in remote villages that have been virtually untouched by time. Fathers teach their sons the techniques to become grand master artisans.
Asia is home to some of the worlds finest gemstones, so grand master artisans have a wide variety of stunning stones to work with when creating dorje jewelry. Tibetan jewelry is often set with green turquoise, red coral, butterscotch yellow amber, labradorite and deep blue lapis lazuli. You'll also find stunning dorje jewelry set with fiery white opal, sky-blue fire moonstone and dazzling blue topaz.
Most dorje jewelry is deeply carved sterling silver, but you'll find pieces in pure silver, bronze and gold. Look for double dorje jewelry that is ornately carved. You'll be amazed at the intricate hand carvings and artistry in each piece.
