DESCRIPTION

Crystal mala bracelet with 18 Lepidolite counter beads with a divider of raw Ruby combined with small Citrine crystals. The closing toggle stones are Citrine with highlights of Lepidolite and Ruby. There are two knotted loops, smaller and larger through which can slip the toggle stones to fasten the bracelet. The smaller toggle makes the bracelet slightly tighter than the large toggle loop. The counter beads are knotted individually for strength and flexibility, using golden brown micro-macrame cord. 

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

The counter bead diameter in this mala bracelet is 0.6 cm (0.2") and the Ruby is approx. 2 cm (0.8") wide. Whilst the total length of this bracelet, including the toggle, is 20 cm (7.9") it would make a good fit for up to an 6.75" wrist circumference. However, if you prefer a more loose style bracelet, this can happily be worn on a 6" wrist as well.

This mala comes in one of my handmade 'vegan leather' (cork) pouches for safe-keeping. Gift-wrapped at no extra charge.
