Himalayan Bone Bead Mala

  |  

108 bead mala made with unique carved bone beads.  Each bead is naturally stained and carved to give a woven appearance.  Bone beads allow us to reflect upon the Buddhist teachings of impermanence.  They serve as a reminder to live in the present moment; because nothing is permanent, everything is possible.

In the Himalayas, it is typical for large animals such as yak or water buffalo to be used for service, food, clothing, and ritual items.  Given the limited amount of resources and the religious practices of the people in the region, it is important that none of the animal goes to waste.  These amazing bone beads are handcrafted by artisans who recycle and reuse everything in daily life and spiritual practice.

Mala measures approximately 34 inches around.  Beads are about 10mm.  Made in Nepal.
