Tamashii® Shönu Bracelets Protection Turquoise
Shönu is a special collection of Tamashii® bracelets dedicated to the younger generations.
The Tibetan word Shönu is used to refer to a young person and ‘those who will be forever young’.
With this new series of jewels we wish to celebrate youthful energy and boldness, trusting that these gifts will never abate.
The predominant feature of the bracelets is the GZI gemstone present in each jewel.
The GZI onyx stones are worked adopting ancient manual methods to create symbolic designs and figures. Inspired by ancient Buddhist traditions, the signs presented in the jewels express simple, ancient and yet extremely powerful concepts. According to the ancient tradition each symbol must present a force supporting the classic Tantras, adhering to and reinforcing the principles of Buddhist philosophy.
For thousands of years, Jade has been revered as a symbol of good fortune and was often used in amulets. Confucius (551 - 479 BC) described this stone as embodying and imparting eleven virtues, including benevolence, loyalty, propriety, and sincerity.
Turquoise was one of the first precious stones ever to be mined. Its intense colour is reminiscent of that of the sky, air, and water, which are fundamental elements in our life.
The turquoise colour is widely used within the sphere of Buddhist esotericism. Green conveys a sense of calmness, while blue symbolizes ascension and purity.
Turquoise helps us to recognize the underlying causes of events in one’s life, strengthening courage and self-confidence.
Tamashii® Turquoise stabilizes one's mood and transforms anger into wisdom.
For Buddhists the power to protect others is a fundamental existential ideal of all living beings and, indeed, this concept underlies the very nature of the martial arts, which are always associated with the principle of defence rather than attacking others. The ability to protect others is one of the key precepts (commandments) of Buddhist teaching, and whoever is called upon to protect others undertakes one of the most important tasks in the world, corresponding to one of the highest aspirations of spirituality.
Each bracelet is composed of 6 mm stones and the minimum length is 14 cm, however these jewels are suitable
for any physical size (also large wrists) thanks to the slots present in the cord.
Supplied in original Tamashii® packaging with Certificate of Authenticity included.
Important to remember:
As these are natural stones, slight variations in shade, texture, or color are entirely normal.
These features are a guarantee of authenticity and make each Tamashii® jewel unique and one of a kind.
