*By Daily Press staff*

Debra Savage, designer and co-owner of 1700 Ocean is fast becoming the “go to jeweler” in Santa Monica.

Savage’s “now” jewels are rocks of a different kind — stones. Not just ordinary stones, but rocks that are individually picked by free divers off of some of the most exotic coastlines in the world. Diving for more than 50 years, the husband and wife team of Gerard and Maryvonne Minot of company Bijou De La Mer (Jewels of the Sea) select only the rocks they feel are conduits for positive energy.

“This positive energy flow can be used by whomever wears the rock,” Savage said. “If you open your mind to rock therapy you can connect to your emotional and spiritual self through simply holding the rock.”

Savage is big on the Hindu tradition of believing in the body’s seven charkas, or energy points. “When a customer comes into (1700 Ocean) and feels a connection to one of the rocks, they immediately buy it,” Savage continued. “It’s been impossible to keep them in stock.”

The cost of being phobia free and having your energy field elevated to a whole new level starts at $240\. Clients include actors, athletes, and producers and most recently Scott Peterson’s sister, Anne Bird, who used one of the “power stones” to get her through the recent press junket for her new book, “Blood Brother: 33 Reasons My Brother, Scott Peterson, Is Guilty." 1700 Ocean is located at Loews Santa Monica Beach Hotel, 1700 Ocean Ave. For more information, visit www.1700ocean.com.
