Rosewood mala with a silver guru bead and an orange tassel

A delicate rosewood mala featuring matte beads in a deep, almost black brown, separated by orange cotton knots. The mala is topped with a silver bead adorned with a continuous Tibetan vine motif, hand-forged in a traditional workshop in Nepal. Below it hangs an orange tassel. 

Traditionally, the mala is held in the left hand, and as one recites, each bead is turned with the thumb. The entire string is hand-knotted.

The mala comes in a silk brocade pouch, which we select to match the color.

Bead diameter 8 mm · Circumference 90 cm · Rosewood, silver, cotton · Handcrafted in the Tibet studio
