Natural Stones in Jewellery: Their Connection to Chakras, Energy and Well-being

At Totapari, we believe jewellery should be authentic without being inaccessible. That is why we use natural, semi-precious stones—Earth’s genuine treasures that offer a vibrant, affordable alternative to expensive gemstones.

Why Natural Stones?
You don't need a diamond to feel the energy of the earth. Semi-precious stones like Amethyst, Citrine, and Onyx carry the same powerful frequencies and rich colours as their "precious" counterparts, but they allow you to wear nature's beauty every day.

We have organized our collection of 43 stones by colour. Use this guide to find the perfect piece that resonates with your spirit and your goals.
