Indian Deity Necklaces Collection
The History of Indian Deities
Ganesh, Buddha, Shiva... We have all heard of them, whether in a TV report or in books. But what are Indian deities and who are they? Indian deities come from Hindu mythology. In fact , the texts of the latter detail an ancient era where legendary deities, animals and demons lived. There are many of them, there are more than 30 million of them. You might think that it is impossible to find your way around, but only about ten Gods are particularly represented and venerated. And they are the ones who inspired our creator to create this "Indian Divinity" collection.
Our collection of Indian deity necklaces was born
It is in the streets of Johri Bazar in Jaipur that this collection was born. These necklaces are carefully made by our artisans from India, using the method of manual stamping . It is a very old technique, used in Egypt from the 2nd millennium BC. It consists of pushing a sheet of metal into a matrix by striking it directly with a hammer. The result is without appeal: a mixture of know-how , tradition , symbolism and travel .
Discover this collection through the deities represented on our necklaces .
