Exceptional Sandalwood Wrist Mala - Buddhist Practices

Rare piece, exceptional materials

This wrist mala is made up of 20 rare collectible sandalwood beads called "laoshan".
Indian sandalwood (S. album) is now very rare and therefore very expensive.
Sandalwood from the Mysore region of South India is considered the best quality available. New plantations have been established with the help of the international community in Tamil Nadu.
It is distinguished from other sandalwoods by its characteristic fragrance which persists over time, and the quality of its wood.

Dimensions of each pearl: 8mm by 8mm

Counterpearls of this wrist mala in natural turquoise from the Hubei region and red agate called "nan hong" from the south of the Yunnan region.

The whole thing is enhanced with old-fashioned 24k gold-plated copper , a traditional method dating back to the Ming dynasty.

Like all traditional malas, this mala bracelet is finished with a sliding knot below the final bead (called Guru bead or Buddha head) allowing the mala to be loosened for practice and tightened once the exercise is finished.

As a gemologist graduated from the National Institute of Gemmology in Paris, all our materials are appraised and certified.

As Malakara, we make all of our malas ourselves, scrupulously respecting tradition.

Why a 20 bead wrist mala instead of a traditional 108 bead mala?
Some types of meditation and spiritual practices, especially in Buddhism, may require a mala with a specific number of beads, which may be different from 108.
For example, there are Buddhist practices that occur in cycles of 21, 28, or other numbers, and a 20-bead mala can be designed to correspond with these practices.

A wrist mala is shorter and easier to handle than the traditional 108-bead mala. This can be convenient for short meditations or for people who prefer a more compact and discreet option.

Some people wear a 20-bead wrist mala as a bracelet, allowing them to have a spiritual object on hand throughout the day for regular spiritual reminders.
