Delicate Mala made of rainbow moonstone

A delicate mala made of 108 polished beads in a milky white color, ranging from clear to slightly cloudy, many with a light blue sheen that seems to shift across the surface when the mala is moved. This effect, known as adularescence, is caused by extremely fine layers within the stone that refract the light. The guru bead is slightly larger than the others; hanging below it are two white cords with twisted ends.

The 108 beads correspond to the traditional number of beads in a mala: As you recite, the beads glide one by one through your fingers until the guru bead marks the end of the cycle. With a bead diameter of 6 mm, this mala is particularly delicate and can even be wrapped around your wrist several times.

The mala is hand-woven in a workshop in Nepal. Each mala comes in a silk brocade pouch, which we select to match the color of the mala.
