Necklace 18ct Gold with 18ct Gold OM: the chain of 18ct Gold in the ancient “chevron” link has been crafted in Italy, the OM pendant of solid 18ct Gold created and crafted in Sydney. The chevron link of this chain is slim, 1mm in thickness, and while the ancients never produced chain as fine as this, the chevron link was historically always one of the most favoured of links in the making of Gold chain.
The symbol OM, put simply, represents the sound of meditation. Most Westerners who are aware of it, are so through associations with Tibetans/Tibetan Buddhism, however its origins go back to around 1000years bce in India, late Bronze Age after the collapse of the Indus Valley Civilization, and is essentially connected to Sanscript concepts of being and truth and a single universal unity, concepts possibly best realized through intense meditation, and certainly the sound of OM can have a calming, meditative effect.
The weight of the 18ct Gold chain is 2.7 grams, 0.6 grams of the 18ct Gold OM pendant, giving a total 18ct Gold weight of 3.3 grams.
