Delicate sandalwood mala with silver bead

Delicate mala made from 108 sandalwood beads with a diameter of 8 mm. At the lower end is a hand-forged Guru bead made of silver with floral Tibetan motifs with a diameter of approx. 15 mm, which is hand-forged exclusively for us in a Tibetan workshop in Nepal. A dark red tassel is attached to the bead. The necklace has a circumference of approx. 76 cm.

The prayer chain is handmade in the Atelier Tibet in Zurich. We deliver it in an elegant silk brocade bag, which we select individually to match the color.

Malas made of sandalwood are very popular in the Himalayan region. They are not only worn for prayers, but also as protective amulets. In Buddhist practice, sandalwood is believed to open the heart and strengthen the quality of compassion. It is considered to be energetically strong and helps to increase concentration during meditation.
