Prayer Ring



Om Mani Padme Hum

This first edition of Osel's prayer ring is 18k gold and engraved with the mantra "Om Mani Padme Hum." Inspired by the Tibetan spinning rings, this is the perfect ring for someone who is practising the Dharma or even as a simple gift for a loved one.

When this ring is sold money will go back into making more of the same ring and also to the Maitreya Project. Click here to learn more about the building of the 500ft statue.

The goal of the Maitreya Project is to promote loving kindess, provide education, healthcare and employment to the poor and under privileged.

My Young son, is once again a little star.. deciding that he wanted me to draw a car from him with " MY TREYA" in it.. and my car would have "YOUR TREYA" in it :)
We took him out the see the buddha relics while they were in singapore and he was so happy to hear all the stories while he was there, although i am sure for a kid it should have been really boring.. but not this young man.. he loved it..

May you have a holiday period that is blessed with loving kindess.

Love N

The Sun Ring




The sun ring inspired by Bastet the cat goddess of ancient egypt
or rather by her father Ra the Sun god...

In the Osel world this would be a gift from Ra to Bas

She was the goddess of sunrise, music, dance, and pleasure as well as family, fertility, and birth.
wear this ring and bring the energy of the Sun into your life allowing abundance and wealth to follow.

ps.. i wear this ring alot!

The Joy of Compassion


My young son surprised me on tuesday as we were reading the papers in the morning before he went off to school.

In singapore there has been news on the front pages for the last 2 days about a young two year old girl who very sadly lost her big toe while standing on an escalator.

My son, who was playing with his blocks at the time, noticed what I was reading. So I explained to him what had happened to the poor girl. He then stood back, paused, looked at his blocks and his toy cars.. then picked up the packaging box for the blocks which clearly states that these blocks are from the ages 2+. He looked at me then and said " mama, look its for two years old" then again, with a pause and some deep thought he looked at his blocks and cars.. then said, "she can play with my blocks mama but lets keep the cars"

So there it is, compassion at such a young age! how blessed am i to have a son who already has this inbuilt.. I must nurture this, as we all should.
Yesterday we went to the hospital to pass the little girl who lost her big toe something that may make her heart sing just a little.

I cant think of anything that can be greater than the happiness i feel with a son who can think this way at four yeas old..What joy!

What has this got to do with Osel?
not much really but i guess if my son had his way he would give her the ring above.

Pink tourmaline is a perfect healing stone for children.
This stone would help her to transform her negative and painful experience into one that could in some way be positive and will help her overcome her fears.

another three.. The Three Jewels


This is actually one of the first rings that i designed..
Like the other rings in the collection it is set in 18k hammered gold.
What is special about this ring is the stones that it set with.
They are tourmalines and are very deep and rich in their color.
Tourmaline has a variety of different healing energies depending on the colour of the stone.
This ring as you can see has the very dark green , green and then the deep pink almost red colour, all of the stones help balance the heart chakra and as a result help to heal in many ways and turns what once looked not so good into the positive :) !
The deep pink stone brings a deep comforting love energy while the greens attract abundance and open the soul to looking at more creative ways of expression.
So there you have it, a ring that heals, brings love and abundance and makes us more creative! what more could a girl want? ;)
The ring is named The Three Gems as we should all strive to attain pure body,speach and mind. and by wearing this may we welcome such great bliss into our lives!

Love and Serenity

Many of the Osel range are designed to subtly enhance the well being of the wearer.

The deliciously soft cabochon rose quartz is the stone of love, opening the heart to encourage all forms of love and helps to welcome a tender, peaceful and gentle outlook
( some even believe that it causes a beautiful complexion! )

Sitting next to it is the milky cabochon aquamarine, this is the stone of serenity and aids one to become more attuned to spiritual levels yet remain centered.
As it is aligned with the throat chakra it helps to keep all forms of communication smooth.

I will continue to bring you more information about the healing properties of all the stones featured in the Osel range.

three ways to say i do

Here I have come up with a warm and deep way of saying I do. These hammerd gold rings come in 3 widths and the small one is also ideal for stacking.
