DESCRIPTION

One of a kind, contemporary 108 bead meditation mala with black Agarwood beads. The three dividers are a combination of Black Tourmaline with small Gold Rutile Quartz beads. The guru bead is a smooth drop-shaped Nephrite Jade, with sculptural texture of a carved rose.

The wooden counter beads are spaced with small matte brown glass seed beads in asymmetrical organic shapes, and knotted with black micro-macrame cord at every nine bead interval around a small faceted Golden Sheen Obsidian bead. This mala has a stylish, 'flowing' feel, with the wooden beads softly following the contours of your hand when handled, and would make a beautiful meditation companion for someone who prefers a mala that's very light in weight with a gentle vibe and neutral colours.

All around length of mala: 128 cm (50") 
Counter bead diameter: 0.8 cm (0.3") 
The width of the divider combination: approx. 4 cm (1.6") 
Length of guru bead: approx. 4.5 cm (1.8")

Please note that Spirit Carrier malas come usually in three sizes, determined by the diameter of the main counter beads - either 8 mm, 10 mm or 12 mm. This mala is the smallest size with 8 mm counter bead diameter (particularly suited for wearing as a necklace due to being lighter in weight and shorter in length than the larger meditation malas).

This unique mala comes in one of Spirit Carrier's handmade fabric drawstring pouches for safe-keeping. If you would rather have a leather pouch, please let me know at the time of purchase.

You'll receive this mala gift-wrapped at no extra charge.
