Sakti

The Sakti Collection by Noir KĀLA reflects raw elegance and symbolic presence. Inspired by the Sanskrit word Shakti — meaning energy, power, and vital force — these designs embody quiet strength and enduring expression. Each Sakti necklace and Sakti anklet is envisioned as an intentional adornment, blending mythic inspiration with modern form.

Sakti — Meaning & Inspiration

The Sanskrit word Shakti translates to “power” or “vital energy” — a concept deeply connected to transformation and inner strength. Across traditions, Shakti symbolizes the movement of life itself: the balance between grounding presence and expressive freedom.

At Noir KĀLA, the Sakti Collection reinterprets this inspiration into contemporary jewelry. Each piece — from a 925 sterling silver Sakti necklace to a brass Sakti anklet — is designed as a symbolic reminder of resilience, adaptability, and timeless elegance. Rather than evoking costume or ritual, Sakti creations reflect personal meaning and modern individuality.

Materials That Endure — 925 Sterling Silver & Brass

The Sakti Collection is crafted from 925 sterling silver and brass, two materials chosen for their durability, character, and timeless appeal:

925 sterling silver — A luminous, noble metal known for strength and wearability. Over time, it naturally develops a soft patina, which can be polished away or embraced as part of its evolving character. A soft cloth easily restores brilliance and maintains longevity.

Brass — Warm, grounding, and full of depth, brass matures into a unique patina that reflects the individuality of each wearer. It can be polished bright or allowed to evolve naturally, making each piece distinct.

These materials are selected not only for their aesthetic qualities but also for their ability to age beautifully, ensuring every Sakti piece becomes more personal over time.

Design Details — Hollow Ornaments for Comfort

Select Sakti anklets feature hollow ornaments, a thoughtful design choice that keeps them lightweight and comfortable for daily wear. These forms maintain presence and texture while reducing weight, creating jewelry that moves naturally with the wearer. This balance between practicality and craftsmanship reflects Noir KĀLA’s dedication to intentional design.

Craft Provenance — Small-Batch Artistry

Every Sakti piece is handcrafted in small, intergenerational workshops in Rajasthan, India. Artisans continue centuries-old techniques — including casting, granulation, and ornament shaping — while incorporating modern precision tools. This collaboration between heritage craftsmanship and contemporary design reflects Noir KĀLA’s mythic-modern aesthetic and commitment to small-batch jewelry that respects cultural traditions.

Styling — Collars, Layers, and Anklets

Sakti Collar Necklace — Frames the neckline with strength and structure, offering bold presence while remaining refined.

Layered Strands — Longer chains pair seamlessly with collars for dynamic, balanced styling.

Sakti Anklets — Whether worn as a single statement or stacked, anklets evoke movement and subtle intention.

From minimal layering to statement styling, Sakti designs invite wearers to express individuality and timeless elegance.

Care & Longevity

925 sterling silver: Wear often to minimize tarnish. Store in a dry pouch and polish gently with a soft cloth for restored brilliance. Avoid harsh chemicals and chlorinated water.

Brass: Keep away from moisture and chemicals. Polish lightly with a soft cloth to maintain brightness, or allow a natural patina to develop for a more textured look.

With mindful care, Sakti pieces age gracefully, becoming more personal over time.

Shakti Symbolism in Jewelry Design

Within the Sakti Collection, symbolic forms translate spiritual concepts into wearable design. Serpent and snake motifs appear as quiet references to transformation, renewal, and the awakening of kundalini energy, reflecting cycles of shedding and becoming. Geometric patterns echo sacred geometry and yantra-inspired structures, offering balance, rhythm, and intention through form rather than overt ritual. 

Collar necklaces draw inspiration from goddess adornment traditions, where the neckline is framed as a place of strength, authority, and presence. Together, these elements connect the shakti symbol's meaning with spiritual jewelry symbols rooted in cultural memory. The result is divine feminine jewelry that feels grounded, modern, and purposeful, allowing kundalini jewelry influences and sacred geometry jewelry aesthetics to coexist naturally.

Assurance — Warranty & Support

Each Sakti piece is backed by Noir KĀLA’s 1-year craftsmanship warranty and supported by 30-day exchanges. Designed in Canada, handcrafted with care, and shipped worldwide, the Sakti Collection reflects Noir KĀLA’s commitment to quality, intentionality, and timeless design.
