DESCRIPTION

Mala double wrap bracelet with 27 olive wood counter beads with two dividers at nine bead intervals with Aquamarine and Baltic Amber. The toggle closure has two strands - you can slip either just the Aquamarine or also the smaller Amber toggle through the knotted loop to fasten the bracelet. The counter beads are spaced with small copper-plated Hematite beads (dark shiny copper tone) and knotted with dark brown micro-macrame cord. Copper is a good energy conductor and together with the olive wood creates a warm, energising vibe. Olive wood symbolises peace, abundance and wisdom.

This is a handy meditation / mantra aid for times when you'd like something smaller and more light weight than a full mala. You can still count up to 108 with these bracelet beads - in multiples of 27 if you prefer. Simply count back and forth over the dividers as many rounds as needed. Use the toggle crystals as the guru bead.

Whilst the total length of this bracelet, including the toggle loop, is 40 cm (15.7") it would make a good fit for up to a 6.75" wrist circumference, although if you prefer a more loose fit, this is fine for a smaller wrist too (loose fit but won't slip over your hand even if your wrist is 6"). Being all natural, the olive wood beads have slight textural differences and each has a different vein pattern (dark on lighter, reddish brown). Their diameter is approx. 0.8 cm (0.3").

This mala bracelet comes in one of my handmade drawstring leather pouches for safe-keeping. Please let me know at the time of purchase if you'd rather have a fabric pouch.

Gift-wrapped at no extra charge.
