• This bold and beautifully detailed true agate modern Dzi bead features the rare Double Tiger Tooth motif, a highly sought-after design known for its fierce energy and protective power.
• Hand-selected by DharmaShop founder Sander Cohen during his 2018 trip to Taiwan, this bead comes from a small, curated collection known for unique patterns and exceptional craftsmanship.
• Strung by our jewelry specialist on adjustable vegan leather cord, this one-of-a-kind Dzi is designed to be worn close to the heart, where its energy can resonate deeply with you.

The Tiger Tooth design symbolizes strength, focus, and perseverance—supporting the wearer in achieving their goals with unwavering determination. Known for its ability to ward off negativity, offer protection, and spark courage, this design is revered in Tibetan culture and among collectors. The dual-tiger motif amplifies this energy, doubling its intensity and grounding force.

This Dzi features a small chip near one end, visible in the product photos. In Tibetan tradition, such imperfections are considered auspicious, as chips from Dzi beads were historically used in healing medicine and are a sign of the bead's sacred use.
