ABOUT SHAKTI

Canadian designed and all hand made by the designer each Shakti piece is created with a one of a kind touch. Many of Sarah's designs evolve from her yoga inspired life and Shakti designs are intended to equally inspire the wearer. When Sarah is not making jewelry she is practicing yoga and seeking inspiration from different countries and cultures. The stones Shakti uses in her designs are carefully selected not just on the basis of outward attraction, but also for the power or property the stone may offer to the wearer. Stones have been used for centuries to heal and bring balance. Shakti wants you to awaken your potential within.

Sandalwood Malas are inspired by Sarah’s trips to Mysore, India where she studies yoga with her teacher there. Sandalwood is purchased from the Government farms in Mysore to support a continued effort to create plantations. This supports an effort to reduce the harvest of natural wood resources and conserves the existing natural resource areas.

Shakti supports the Hill Tribe People maintain a traditional craft that is passed down from generation to generation. Purchasing Shakti Thai silver helps sustain a traditional craft and provides the Hill Tribe People with a reliable source of income.

One of Shakti’s favorite semi-precious stones is Turquoise. All turquoise is Tibetan unless specified otherwise in the description supporting the Tibetan refugees in India.

Having just returned from a buying trip to India, Shakti is excited to expand into the world of precious stones. Sarah travels around and hand picks the best most unique stones and pendants she can find, looking for rare cuts and high quality. Markets and local dealers are a favorite and Shakti support the local communities at fair trade pricing when travelling abroad for supplies.

Shakti’s collection is broken down into 4 categories: Turquoise, Charms, Precious and Limited Edition. The website photos are updated monthly to showcase Shakti’s ever changing and current designs. What separates Shakti from other designers is the time and touch put into finishing each Shakti piece so it has its own unique touch.

All shakti pieces are hand made by the designer with love!
