DESCRIPTION

One of a kind, contemporary 108 bead meditation mala with weathered Agate beads. An earthy, tactile mala in tones of brown and white, pleasant to handle in meditation. The three dividers are a combination of Magnesite and Smokey Quartz. The guru bead consists of a large carved rosewood bead, and a 'tassel' of knotted strands in reddish brown micro-macrame cord, ending in Magnesite and small Smokey Quartz crystals.

The Agate counter beads are spaced with small matte brown glass seed beads which are not uniform in shape but have an organic feel to them. The counter beads also include a small Smokey Quartz spacer knotted at every nine bead interval.

All around length of mala: 122 cm (48")
Counter bead diameter: 1 cm (0.3")
The width of the divider combination: approx. 2.5 cm (1")
Length of guru bead crystal combination: 7 cm (2.75")

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 middle size with 10 mm counter bead diameter.

This mala comes in one of my handmade soft brown leather pouches for safe-keeping. If you would rather have a fabric pouch, please let me know at the time of purchase.
