Ancient Chung Dzi Bead

• This spectacular ancient Chung Dzi has had a long life.  Somewhere in its past it was repaired and polished, but the bead is truly a stunner.
• DharmaShop founder, Sander Cohen, obtained this rare find on a trip to Kathmandu many years ago.  He strung it on cotton cord with two antique coral beads inlaid with pieces of turquoise.
• Coral symbolizes life and blood force energy; it is the stone of transformation and peace.

Dzi beads are believed to bring protection and prosperity to the wearer.  The striped design represents multiple fortunes to be gained by the owner.  If powered by love of ones self, this bead can offer a great journey.

Bead measures approximately 39x12mm.  It has  an irregular 2mm hole with uneven ends.
