I returned it and have not heard back yet.

It was well made but too small for me. I could not get it over my hand. The beads were also larger than I expected. I am interested in your rosewood mala if you get it back in stock. It looks adjustable. Thank you.

Do you all have care suggestions? Is it OK to wear ALL the time? Can I get it wet? I did by the oil, how often should I put it on?

DharmaShop 01/23/2024

Hey Jon! Thanks so much for reaching out to us. We do suggest removing your wrist mala when washing, swimming, etc. for it will cause premature wear on these materials. Bodhi seeds are porous in nature, so oiling them occasionally can help as well. To learn more about how to care for your mala beads, please visit: https://www.dharmashop.com/pages/materials-care-and-washing-instructions I hope this information is helpful! We appreciate your inquiry and support.

I love my wrist Mala that I recently purchased from Dharma Shop! Where do the bodhi seeds used come from?

DharmaShop 01/10/2024

Hello Linda, thanks for your message! All of our bodhi seed malas are sourced and strung by artisans in Kathmandu, Nepal. I hope this information is helpful. We appreciate your inquiry and support.

How do I loosen my wrist Mala. It is so tight I cannot adjust it. TY.

DharmaShop 12/22/2023

Hey Barbara! Thanks for your message and inquiry. The hand-tied knot serves as a tube through which the two cords slide. Without untying or loosening the knot, grasp the beads of the bracelet on either side of the knot and firmly pull. The first few times may require greater strength as the cords are exercised. To tighten, grasp the toggle beads and pull. I have also included a video below which helps further detail the adjustable knot feature. I hope this information is helpful! Let us know if you have any additional questions. https://www.dharmashop.com/blogs/news/how-to-adjust-your-mala-beads

I just ordered and received this bracelet and am wondering if you would recommend taking it off before showering because it's made from seeds?

Answers (1)

DharmaShop 01/10/2024

Hello Hamilton, thanks so much for reaching out to us! We would suggest removing your mala when washing or swimming for it could affect not only the porous seed beads but also the cotton fiber cord. I hope this information is helpful. We appreciate your inquiry and support.

how many beads are on the mala? a wrist mala should be multiples of 9 that can be multiplied and come to an even 108 so the bead amounts should be 9, 18 , 27 , 36 , 54 and 108, makes recital rotations easy and will always end on the guru . im only counting 23 in the picture

DharmaShop 02/13/2023

Hi John! Thanks for your message and feedback. Because this is a sized mala bracelet, the number of bodhi will vary to ensure a good fit for one's wrist. We would suggest a 108 mala if you would prefer this style for counting, or our jewelry designer can customize this bracelet to any count you'd like for a small fee. Email us at info@dharmashop.com and we would be happy to detail those next steps. I hope this information is helpful! We appreciate your inquiry and support.
