Lotus Arts de Vivre : Luxury Jewelry Boutique
If you’re looking for a set of diamond earrings or that perfect luxury ring, then look no further than the Lotus Arts de Vivre, the leading online luxury jewelry boutique. Whether you’re in the market for precious gemstones, diamonds, gold, or pearls, Lotus Arts de Vivre will have just the thing for you.
And what’s best of all is you can search for this special, luxury jewelry on the web! No need to visit the mall or a local jeweler and mull over the different styles and prices of luxury jewelry, all the while being hassled by bouncy salespeople. Just click around Lotus Arts de Vivre extensive online catalogue and you’ll be amazed at all the different jewelry you can order and the incredible deals that go with them.
Lotus Arts de Vivre staff understands not only the monetary value of luxury jewelry, but the culture and history surrounding it and thus it caters to customers on a very personal level. The beautiful pictures will guide your search as you seek out the luxury jewelry you have in mind and customer service is there to help as you order your favorite items.
Maybe you want to buy a necklace just for yourself. Rings and bands, earrings and studs, bracelets and bangles, necklaces and pendants – whatever you’re looking for, you’re sure to find it with a few clicks of your mouse. There is luxury jewelry for every person and occasion. The key is to find a retailer that you can rely on for affordable, quality purchases and that’s why Lotus Arts de Vivre is such a great resource.
But remember that even when you’re looking for a good deal, you’ll want to also ensure you’re investing in high-quality, fine jewelry. Otherwise, you’re not on a search for luxury jewelry but for bargain jewelry that might fall apart or turn your skin a strange color. No, luxury jewelry is special and fortunately, with Lotus Arts de Vivre, you get both reasonable prices and fine quality. It’s like killing two birds with one gemstone!
Lotus Arts de Vivre is hardly the only online merchandiser for luxury jewelry, however, so you might want to browse the World Wide Web for other convenient ways to shop for jewelry. If you prefer to go to a physical store located near by, as it may hold more integrity in your mind, then that of course is an equally plausible option.
Just remember that Lotus Arts de Vivre can easily be accessed on your browser at the URL “www.lotusartsdevivre.com,” and the web-based company is certainly easier to navigate than any physical jewelry store. But how can you be assured of it’s a reputable company and will deliver superior luxury jewelry?
Lotus Arts de Vivre involved and expert staff defines the whole company and you’ll find them to be immensely helpful. This is just one of the hints to Lotus Arts de Vivre quality service. Lotus Arts de Vivre is basically just one of the best online fine diamond and jewelry stores around. So if you want to fulfill your luxury jewelry needs via the Internet, Lotus Arts de Vivre is one of your better bets!
Luxury Gift July 27th, 2007
Giving a Luxury Gift:
When you give a present to someone, do you want them to turn around and be an “Indian giver”? No! Well, if you want your gift receiver to value your gift for years to come, then you might consider giving a luxury gift. But when is it appropriate to give a luxury gift and what are some ideas for a luxury gift?
A luxury gift is not just any other gift. It means and says a lot, so the process of picking one out for a friend, loved one, business partner, or anyone else, must be taken seriously. Here is a guide to luxury gifts.
What is a luxury gift?
A luxury gift is just what it sounds like – a gift that probably
cost a decent amount of money and oozes extravagance. It might be
practical, but that certainly isn’t its only purpose. It is designed
to say something more than other gifts say. It’s not just given
out of courtesy, but out of true appreciation, respect, or importance
of the person you’re giving it to.
* When is the right occasion to give a luxury gift?
Weddings are probably the most common time that luxury gifts are given. People show their love and concern for the newlyweds by lavishing them with a slue of gifts, often requested on their own registry, to help them get along with the various expenses of life after that honeymoon is over. Any big life event like this – having a baby, graduating, etc – can mean that a luxury gift is in order. Often, however, luxury items are given and received liberally in the business arena where people court their clientele. But any birthday, anniversary, or occasion that has some sense of seriousness to it, can be greatly improved via a luxury gift.
What luxury gift should you get?
This is a tricky question. The luxury gift you end up buying is
going to be entirely based on the person you are buying it for and
the reason you are buying it for them. If you’re to attend a wedding,
you will usually rely on the wedding gift registry at a particular
store to get good gift ideas. If you’re purchasing a luxury gift
for your spouse on your wedding anniversary, you of course will
have more of an idea than anyone else what to put your money toward.
(For women, expensive jewelry, like a shiny, pearl necklace for
instance, is always a safe buy however!)
What are online resources for luxury gifts?
The world of online shopping is one that has exploded over the past
few years and if you’re looking for a gift for a friend, co-worker,
or lover, you’ll find a ton of gift ideas and choices by surfing
the vast waves of the Internet. The key is to be unique. Give a
personal gift, not just a generic one. A luxury gift that comes
from the heart is better than one that comes from someone with a
lot of money in their pocket. Of course the very term luxury gift
implies a certain class of gifts, so money is probably not your
biggest obstacle in this case, but it’s also important that you
don’t leave behind sentimentality or creativity when picking out
that perfect gift. Even if you’re buying something for an employee
or boss, you can find a luxury gift that stands out from the rest.
New Jewelry Collection : Mystique of MURO (Black a Moor)Collection
The von Bueren family's, Rolf, Helen, Sri, Nicki's passion for creativity
is the foundation of the renowned Lotus Arts de Vivre brand. The
family's great devotion toward object d'art began over two decades.
Their infinite passion from each inspiring voyage brings back the
artifact and intricate raw materials for creating each unique piece

Recognized in every collection, Lotus Arts de Vivre truly applies the wisdom of the foregone eras to produce objects that challenges the levels of modern creation.
In "Mystique of MURO", the von Bueren invites you back through time.
The history of Muro trace back from the ancient years.
Through trades and war, the Moor (black-a-Moor) were "prisoners
of war". Their journey takes them from the Turkish coast of
Dalmatia to the Royal court of Spain and into the center the Venetian
nobles. In that era, Venice was the European's center of art, extravagant
and cultured of the world, it is most fashionable for nobility to
own a moor (usually young boys with sweetest face) and dressed them
up profligately from head-to-toes adorn
with diamonds & gold, color gems & pearl to represent
the importance of owners.
Since then MURO has been repeated/ recognized/ expressed in various
form of art. i.e. paintings, sculpture and jewelry.
It is widely believed that owning a Muro art helps prevent bad
luck and served as a "Good Luck Charms." The Muro's
can be made by only a handful of expertise craftsmen. The workman
needs to have the highest standard and artistic carving skilled
in order to replicate the Moor sweetest face and expression. Most
of the Muro's pieces in present days are ancient heritage with
owners such as Barbara Hutton, Ernest Hemingway, Arthur Rubenstein,
Liz Taylor, and Sir Elton John.

Palm Stick Handbag
This is a living coconut tree with flowers. If you cut the stem of the flower and collect the juice, you will have palm sugar but the flower will not fruit anymore.
1) the flower when it bursts
2) the flower after it has shed the spate leaves
3) The flowers of coconut and some fruits in the very early stage.
4) coconut sticks after the nuts have been harvested
A lot of labour is applied before a handbag is finished for instance.
for weight sake we cut the palm stick into half and apply them to
the bag shell, sewing them on and giving the shape too.
Before that we cover each stick with 24K leaf gold by lacquering
first and adding the gold leaf which requires a skilled and "cool"
hand.
Last we add the corner in silver or gold gilded silver and design
the lock, cost of which determines the final price of the bag.
Palm stick handbag, corners gilded gold design, Lotus diamond flower
clasp mounted in oxidized SS.
Liana Wood Handbags & Jewelry
We all remember Tarzan swinging on air roots from tree to another tree. These air roots are called Liana Wood. When they reach the ground they grow roots again and then grow up one more time. This way some Liana wood has lived for several hundred years and the wood we used for the handbag is approximately 80 - 120 years old.
Liana Woods are only found in two countries in the world, Brazil and Indonesia.
Following, please find the process of a liana wood handbag or jewelry.
Choose the liana of age 80-120 years well seasoned and dried.
Cut the size chosen by the designer for a particular hand bag and
half it, hollow it as much as possible, polish inside outside, all
by experienced hands.
The rest is design work and all metal work has to be done for each bag again.

We hope that these explanations are useful to you to understand the uniqueness of LAdV's design and crafting. These handbags are produced in very limited numbers and we congratulate you to being owner of uniquely luxurious item.
Prayer Bead
The bead of the Rudraksha tree (Elaeocarpus granitrus) holds a very
special place in Hinduism and is credited to possess mystical and
divine properties. Necklaces made of Rudraksha beads are considered
auspicious as well as powerful, and are supposed to have profound
astrological and health benefits. It is believed that one who wears
Rudraksha is untouched by sins, and is protected from all impious
deeds or thoughts.
Origin & Myths :-
"Rudraksha" has its etymological origin in Sanskrit, 'Rudra'
and 'Aksha'. 'Rudra' is another name for Lord Shiva, and 'aksha'
means teardrop. Mythological tales have it that the Rudraksha plant
was born out of Lord Shiva's tear drops. Ancient scriptures, such
as 'Shiva Purana', 'Padma Purana' and 'Srimad Bhagavad' mention
the greatness and wonderful powers of the Rudraksha. For thousands
of years, they have adorned the bodies of sages and saints leading
a fearless life in far-flung frontiers seeking enlightenment and
liberation.
Medicinal Value & Biomedical Properties:-
According to the Ayurvedic medical system, wearing Rudrakshas can
have a positive effect on the heart and nerves, and relieve you
from stress, anxiety, depression, palpitations and lack of concentration.
It is also known for its anti ageing effect, and electromagnetic
and inductive properties. People with high blood pressure have been
found to have benefited from the use of Rudraksha seeds.
Types of Rudraksha :-
Rudraksha beads are classified on the basis of the number of "mukhis"
- the clefts and furrows - they have on the surface( or say the
number of partitions the bead is divided in). Each bead has a different
effect on you, depending on the number of mukhis it has. These are
vital from the astrological viewpoint, since it is believed that
Rudrakshas of different mukhis please different planets. The scriptures
speak of 1 to 38 mukhis, but Rudrakshas of 1 to 14 mukhis are commonly
found. 15-21 are rare. The rareness and size, the beauty define
the prices which can vary much. A one Mukhi piece can go up to US$
10,000 and over. Prayer bead collecting is a serious activity these
days
Single Faced Rudraksha
A Rudraksha bead can have several faces or mukhis. Mukhis or faces are visible vertical lines seen across the Rudraksha bead. Each bead has a different effect on you, depending on the number of mukhis it has. There are 38 varieties of Rudrakshas in total available in upto 21 mukhis or faces. Not all are available. Some are more easy to get than others and hence the large variation in their prices.
Ek Mukhi (the single faced or one-faced) the most powerful & popular Rudraksha and is considered to be the mother of all Rudrakshas. The Ek Mukhi is Lord Shiva Himself, the main among all Rudrakshas of all faces. This Rudraksha is said to be the best of all, extremely rare and auspicious price and also very powerful in awakening our awareness and knowledge of God. Removes all kinds of obstacles and washes away sins. It protects its wearer from problems and obstacles and also considered as Goddess Lakshmi stays & blesses the worshipper of Ek mukhi rudraksha. The One Mukhi Rudraksha is the symbol of Godhood, Supreme Truth and Attainment of Eternity.
It is ruled by the Sun and enlightens the Super Consciousness. It brings the power of Dharana to the wearer meaning the power to concentrate the mind on an object. The wearer gets his mental structure changed and he begins to feel renunciation from the worldly affairs and naturally inclines towards GOD.
The person who worships it obtains not only all the worldly pleasures during his life span but also remains unaffected by them and never run short of money, suffer from catastrophic diseases or sorrows. They become famous, wealthy and powerful. These Rudrakshas bring respect and honor to their wearers and create a general aura of favorable circumstances in all walks of life. One Mukhi Rudraksha is found in two shapes round and the half moon shape. One mukhi Half moon is found in a family tree of Rudraksha from India and Srilanka.
First rate quality of single faced Rudrakshas are expensive. The
texts that describe Rudraksha state that there should be no consideration
in the mind of the devotee that one bead may be stronger than another
due to pricing

Om Mani Padme Hum - The Powers of the Six Syllables
Rich in history and meaning, our Lotus Arts de Vivre Tibetan Prayer
Collection is fashioned after authentic, larger Prayer Wheels seen
in Tibetan monasteries.
Mani is translated as jewel and Padme as in the lotus. This Tibetan
mantra translates as Jewel in the Lotus, or Hail to the Jewel in
the Lotus.
The six syllables perfect the Six Paramitas of the Bodhisattvas.
The mantra Om Mani Padme Hum contains the essence of the entire
Buddhism teachings. When you say the first syllable Om, it is blessed
to help you achieve perfection in the practice of generosity, Ma
to perfect the practice of pure ethics, and Ni to achieve perfection
in the practice of tolerance and patience. Pad, the fourth syllable,
to achieve perfection of perseverance, Me to achieve perfection
in the practice of concentration, and the final sixth syllable Hum
to achieve perfection in the practice of wisdom. To recite the mantra
enables one to achieve perfection in the six practices from generosity
to wisdom. The path of these six perfections is the path walked
by all the Buddhism of the three times.
