The Sri Yantra, or Yantra of Creation, has been known in the Hindu and Buddhist traditions since vedic times, as the most powerful and mystically beautiful of all yantras. The Sri Yantra represents the map of man’s spiritual journey from material existence to ultimate enlightenment... Shown here in Coral

Sri Yantra represents the timeless creative principle of the universe, the continuous unfoldment of all realms of creation from the central source and, with that mindfulness, it is also used as an object of meditation. All precious stone pendants are made using precious stone – lapis lazuli, malachite, tourmaline, turquoise or coral. Each pendant is hand created in layers. First, the precious stone is crushed, this is then placed on a glass surface. This is the back of the pendant. The next step is to layer the stone with paint, glitter and a gold line design, either the flower of life or sri yantra. The pendant is then sealed with glass on the top and finished with sterling silver around its side. |
Please note: each pendant is made individually by hand, and the surface colours vary...
There are hundreds of different coloured designs, too many to picture here. The precious stone on the back of the pendant is always the same.
Our customers are never disappointed and each pendant radiates visual magic.
Each pendant is 1-5/8 inches wide. It is possible to get your pendant wet - this will not damage the piece.
Asaf Zakay, Byron Bay, glass artist and designer, creates Sacred Geometric symbols in stunning three-dimensional art forms using the medium of bevelled glass. These timeless pieces are like gemstones; the facets and symmetries compel our eyes and hearts to encounter life more deeply, bringing healing and deepening spiritual awareness.
Asaf has realised his passion and his creative energy continues to flow as he intuitively constructs forms that radiate visual magic of stunning timeless presence. For as long as he can remember Asaf has been making the sacred symbol of the merkaba, the star tetrahedron, from a variety of materials including wood, metal, bamboo and shell. It wasn’t until he reached Australia that he began to research the meaning and the significance of this powerful and transformative shape.
Asaf hand crafts each piece carefully using the stained glass technique, a process he studied whilst he was in Israel. His background as a glass fitter and naturally gifted artist led him to explore the art of stained glass, a medium with which he now works full time.
Shortly after his arrival to Australia Asaf began selling his work at the markets in the area of Byron shire, where he was introduced to the Flower of Life, the teaching of the merkaba and sacred geometry. The combination of the sacred geometry teachings and meditation created a doorway for Asaf to open his eyes and tap into the unlimited potential of the human spirit.
People have commented when they are buying one of his works they are buying 'a piece of Asaf' – and that is probably true, as he believes each piece that he makes is for someone in particular; that no matter where they are, or who is actually purchasing it for them, the right piece will go to the right person.
As he grows so does his work, continually producing more complex and visually exciting forms of geometry, which change the world around him into an experience of higher intention, greater freedom and possibility. Just the contemplation of these shapes and the fact they are in his everyday life on a physical level expands and brings to the world the knowledge that already exists inside him.
Asaf currently lives in the Northern Rivers of New South Wales, Australia, where he creates from his gallery/studio in Byron Bay.
