About the designs and the designer
MDCM is the designer of the jewellery.
He is a man whose creativity is just as much a paradox as his initials.
He has his roots set deep down in the earth and this foundation gives him
the strength to stretch far beyond the common and into the beauty of the
universe without loosing his balance.
And balance is the main ingredient of his jewellery. A visual balance and
even more a balance and harmony in the energy they radiate.
MDCM has during the last ten years helped people by balancing their
chakras through healing and massage.
With this new design he has created a series of jewellery that in a subtle
and effective way support us in our natural and often subconscious search
for balance
only in a beautiful natural way, no fanaticism!
As the core of the design is the seven chakras this jewellery suits every
one the fact that the energy of the seven chakras is a part of the
design merely adds quality to the pieces and is why they look so
attractive and harmonious.

Symbols in the FERN &
KORU Design
The spiral is found
in all ancient cultures. In New Zealand it is known as Koru - the new
shoot of the fern meaning new beginning. The Fern plays an important part
in many Pacific cultures thus the Hawaiian influence in the names of this
range.
The heart of this design is the seven Chakras which are represented by the
beautifully facet cut gems along the stem of the fern and embraced
by the intricate koru pattern in the heart pendant.
Symbols in the STAR Design
The seven
pointed star also known as the Elven Star, has been used since
ancient times to heal and balance
It also represents the Pleiades known as the Seven Sisters which
originates from Greek mythology, the daughters of Atlas and Pleione, they
have been held sacred for thousands of years and have been given titles
such as Centre of the Universe, Seat of Immortality the Home of Divinity
and Matariki by Maori.
The number seven contains the power of magic and good fortune. The
symbolic meaning of the number can be traced back to the Creation seven
days and the seventh was made the holy day.
Circles and Spirals are two other symbols used in the
jewellery.
The circles represent the Earth, the Moon, the Sun and the Universe - our
world.
Spirals have long been associated with unfoldment, searching both inwardly
and outwardly.
The Chakras have been known since ancient times as energy
points in the human body. It is almost impossible to get sick if all of
the seven chakras are in balance as we are then in balance with ourselves.
The individual chakras resonate with the colours of the rainbow in the
following order:
Base red, Sacral orange, Solar Plexus yellow, Heart green, Throat
blue Third Eye purple, Crown white.
