This dainty design displays a lotus-shaped onyx, hand-carved by an expert artisan, using an age-old, stone-carving technique. Black onyx is a soothing stone, taking on its energy lets you breathe easier, and alleviates fears.
The top of the lotus is adorned with a diamond, which encourages you to see, seek and radiate the light within yourself.
The lotus lends its fluid shape to the works of Jean Arp (1886) and Constantin Brancusi (1876). This flower is associated with rebirth and spiritual enlightenment.
This piece is handmade from 14-karat recycled gold in our Atelier in Amsterdam. All gemstones are natural and hand carved, therefore there may be a slight variation in color, shape, and weight of the product.

Onyx
Onyx is a popular gemstone that belongs to the chalcedony family, a form of quartz, and is composed of layered bands of different colors. The main source of high-quality onyx is Brazil, and India but can also be found in Mexico and Italy. Onyx is often regarded as a protective stone, believed to absorb negative energy, help ground individuals and encourage positive decision-making and personal growth.

All our jewelry is handmade in our Amsterdam atelier. Most of our carvings are hand-carved in our atelier and in Germany. Above all else, we value our community most, our customers, the craftsmen that generously lend us their skill, and everyone else who is involved in this journey. We build lasting relationships, we act with kindness and respect, and value quality of life. All the craftsmen and artisans we work with are compensated fairly.
We only work with people who align with our values of sourcing and crafting and make sure these ethics are lived throughout our supply chain. Where possible we produce locally, but we also highly value our craftsmen who work from a distance. They possess skills that are rare to find and are often tied to remote communities. We take pride in that our collaborations have a direct positive impact on them and their community.
When we first started our business, we aimed to be transparent about our jewelry pricing by providing a price breakdown for each piece. However, due to the constant fluctuations in gold and gemstone prices, it has become challenging to keep detailed cost breakdowns updated on our website.
As a small business with purpose in an industry that is hazy and foggy when it comes to its transparency, we want to lead by example and are committed to bringing transparency to the jewelry industry. If you're interested in receiving a full breakdown of our pricing and cost structure, we’d be happy to email you all the details. Please feel free to contact us at contact@sophiejoanne.com for more information.
