the Shakti Collection

Shakti Collection ~ a yoga inspired collection. be infused and empowered by a gemstone’s energy.

when I’m not creating jewelry, photographing jewelry, traveling to share our jewelry, blogging about jewelry, answering emails about jewelry (you get the idea), chances are I’m practicing or teaching yoga. I’ve considered myself a yogi for many years, and my practice very much supports the work and creativity I am able to give to kdJ. Given what a integral part of my life yoga is, it was only a matter of time before kara | daniel debuted a yoga inspired line.

Introducing… the Shakti Collection

Shakti from Sanskrit ~ sacred force or empowerment, is the primordial cosmic energy.
represents the dynamic forces that move through the entire universe.

The Shakti Collection features yoga inspired pendants, and energetically significant gemstones. Each piece is accompanied by it’s story; the significance of the symbols and the qualities inherent in the gemstones, energy present in crystalline form. Find the perfect piece to infuse you with Shakti.

Available from kara | daniel JEWELRY at art fairs this summer and Earthly Delights.

studio or garden?

kara | daniel earrings - spring/summer 2010

kara | daniel earrings ~ spring | summer 2010

spring has sprung, and the awful truth is that our biggest artist dilemma this time of year is “studio or garden?”. luckily for all of our clients and collectors that are planning on seeing brand new work in the next few weeks we’ve found a work around – create with the palette of the season. our studio overlooks our organic raised vegetable beds and perennial gardens, and with one look at our jewelry this season you’ll have a sense of what’s happening right outside our windows.

rubies as deep as the magenta clematis, carnelian trying to pass as oriental poppies, jade and grossular garnet mimicking mesclun lettuces, amazonite and aventurine pop up as frequently as forget-me-nots.

it’s all about the color this season, find us and these gorgeous gems soon! find us this weekend at the East Lansing Arts Fest in East Lansing, MI.
