Skull mala bracelet

Skulls and bones in Tibetan jewelry symbolize the transience of life and remind us that everything material and physical is fleeting. They serve as a reminder to focus on spiritual development and letting go of worldly attachments. In Tibetan culture, they also stand for protection from negative energies and are intended to remind the wearer of the importance of compassion and wisdom. These symbols are found particularly in amulets and ritual objects, often artistically carved in silver or bone.
