*As worn on Channel 4’s Made in Chelsea by the lovely Inga Valentina*
For generations, people of the Himalaya have carried amulets & charms close to the body as way of protection. Traditionally vessels for sacred mantras, deities & potent formulas, the power of each amulet came from within.
This beautiful piece of craftsmanship is a functional amulet (hollow on the inside allowing you to keep something inside).
Additional care instructions are provided to keep the screw end safe.
Perfect for keeping someone or somewhere close to you; an eyelash, grain of sand, strand of hair, ashes…

Social impact:
This piece has been carefully crafted by a small team of marginalised artisans displaced from West Bengal, who have found sustainable livelihoods through their skill in making beautiful pieces like these.
They are proudly certified by the World Fair Trade Organisation.
Each piece comes packaged in a soft organic pouch, which has been lovingly made by some of Jaipur’s most vulnerable women, who are bettering their lives through the income from the block printing, tassel making and stitching of these very pouches. No two are the same, each one beautiful in its imperfections.
Planet friendly packaging:
Packaging is mindfully thought through to be kind to the planet.
In addition to our organic cotton jewellery pouches, your jewellery will come packaged with tree-free recycled cotton paper care tags, soy based, compostable tissue paper and a recyclable eco postal box.
To help keep your jewellery looking lovely, each piece comes with a soft branded jewellery cloth.
One pouch per order (unless ordering items at risk of tangling such as pendants, which will have their own pouch). If you would like more than one pouch (for gifting purposes) please include in the note at checkout or email hello@bohemian-botanicals.com
