Loading... Please wait...These disc bone beads have terrific texture and serve to compliment the smooth, cool feel of the polished agate dzi bead spacers very well. It is a true treasue with a mighty heft. This is a mala for serious practice and/or just admiration of the natural materials and crafting traditions involved. Very limited supply of this large, heavy mala.
Handmade in Nepal with 6 agate dzi beads, 3 naga shell beads and two antique style mala counters.
Size: Disc beads measure 5mm x 13mm. 3 large naga spacer beads are 18mm. Total circumference is 31 inches.

This mala is absolutely gorgeous. The length is perfect. As I have never had a bone mala before, I was unprepared for the way it tears my hear while I wear it or put it on and take it off. The tiny gaps between the bone beads seem to trap any hairs they touch and the slightest movement then breaks them. Best suited for those who have short hair though I'm going to keep wearing it because it is such a beautiful mala. . . .
