Bodhi is a Sanskrit word that literally means awakened. The bodhi tree was so named because the Buddha attained the awakened state or enlightenment under its spreading canopy. Since then the meaning of this fabled leaf has symbolized the perfection of wisdom in its most ultimate state. This hand cast bodhi pendant, made with sterling silver, comes with its own 18'' sea foam green ribbon and has a slip bead at the back for use as a light and loose necklace or fashionable choker.
All of our jewelry is handmade in Nepal by gifted artisans from Newari, Shakya and Bajracharya clans. Each piece is made with sterling silver using a range of traditional crafting techniques. Pendants come mounted on a sustainably harvested lokta paper card (2.25''h x 2''w) that can either self stand or be hung from the plastic rail on the back.
