Gigantic Saddhu Rudraksha Mala

In Kathmandu it is common to see a Saddhu, or Shamen, with a string of huge ancient rudraksha beads that hang almost to the ground.

We have had these huge (22mm) wide beads cut in half to make them more manageable and easier to wear and count mantras.

Measures approximately 38 inches around. Beads are 22mm by 10mm.  Handmade in Kathmandu, Nepal.
