Ruby Red Yak Bone Mala

This colorful yak bone mala has been dyed a magical ruby red color.  Each individual bead contains inlaid coral and turquoise chips and brass.

A note about bone beads:  Tibetan nomadic life is hard, and in the cold there is little to eat.  When an animal is used for food nothing is wasted.  These amazing bone beads are hand inlaid by artisans who recycle and reuse everything in daily life and spiritual practice.

Measures approximately 26 inches around.  Each bead measures about 8mm.  Handmade in Kathmandu, Nepal.
