This gold-coloured metal feng shui window decoration places a central OM symbol at its heart, from which seven chakra bijas descend. The hanging elements are finished with chakra-coloured gemstone beads, so the piece adds a subtle, symbolic accent to a room as it catches the light. It measures roughly 46 × 10.5 cm.
The OM symbol
OM is known as a primordial sound, traditionally regarded as a symbol of unity, higher consciousness and deep connection. It is one of the most recognisable sounds and signs of the Eastern meditation and yoga tradition, carrying an understated yet powerful symbolism.
The chakra-coloured stones
The seven hanging bijas are decorated with chakra-coloured gemstone beads: amethyst, lapis lazuli, iolite, peridot, citrine, carnelian and garnet. They echo the traditional palette of the seven main chakras, from violet to deep red, so the colours of the piece form a unified whole.
Feng shui tradition
Feng shui is a Chinese teaching more than three thousand years old about the link between surroundings and wellbeing, and the harmonious flow of chi. Hanging pieces like this are placed as popular accents at a window, in a passageway or in a meditation corner.
Good to know
