Symbols - Cardamom Seed

Today, we’re talking about the symbol of the cardamom seed. The Cardamom seed has been part of our brand and our logo since the very beginning; Sushil made this incredibly beautiful gold cardamom pod years ago. I always wear one, I think they’re so wonderful with their ribs and little bumps and lumps of a seed.

I chose the cardamom because, like all seeds, it’s all about potential, the change from one thing to another, new beginnings – birth and renewal. All of life is contained in a seed, which is such a potent symbol.

I love the cardamom because it has the most extraordinary smell; a lot of places put cardamom pods in their coffee machines to generate the incredible aroma mixed with coffee.

Cardamom is thought to aid eloquence and a clear mind. It’s a beautiful plant, a beautiful seed, and a beautiful symbol.
