📿 Bodhi Seed Beads That Feel Rooted in Practice
There’s something special about these Bodhi Seed Beads — they don’t just sit in your hand, they speak to it. Each bead was once part of a longer mala, used in practice and softened by time. The dark browns and deep reds hold a kind of quiet energy — steady, settled, and full of life. Now re-strung into a wrist mala, this piece is compact and easy to wear. The yellow cord and tassel add a warm brightness, like sunlight through autumn leaves.
It’s not flashy — but it’s deeply felt.
🌱 The Timeless Symbolism of Bodhi Seed Beads
Historically, Bodhi seeds symbolize enlightenment — a nod to the sacred moment when the Buddha awakened beneath the Bodhi tree. In malas, they embody mindfulness, intention, and the journey inward. They’re not just beads — they’re reminders.
This strand of Bodhi Seed Beads includes 22 prayer beads, each about 10.5×14mm. Their natural variation and worn edges reflect the passage of time — and invite you to pause, breathe, and feel.

🧵 Handmade in Tibet, with Intention in Every Bead
Crafted by hand in Tibet, this wrist mala is made from 35–45-year-old Bodhi seeds sourced from a well-used traditional strand. Each bead was carefully selected and re-strung by hand, keeping the energy of its past while creating a new form for the present.
It’s strung on a durable, non-stretch yellow cord and finished with a simple tassel to match. Handcrafted, humble, and made to last.

Import Taxes & Customs Duties
United States Import Taxes & Customs Duties
We pay all import duties, tariffs and customs clearance fees before your parcel reaches you. The price at checkout is the final price, and nothing is owed to the carrier at delivery.
What we cover on US orders:
- Import duties and tariffs
- Customs clearance and brokerage fees
- Any carrier disbursement or advancement fees
If a carrier ever asks you to pay a customs charge on one of our parcels, do not pay it. Contact us with the notice and we will resolve it directly with the carrier.
Import Taxes & Customs Duties for Other Countries
We only cover import charges on orders shipped to the United States. For all other countries, the buyer pays any import taxes and duties.
Here's why. We can do this because we're based in the US. This allows us to stay up to date on changes to US import taxes and duties, and since most of our orders ship here, we know what to expect.
Other countries are different. Every country sets its own import taxes and duties, and the rules are different everywhere. The amount can depend on the type of product, the value of your order, and your country's tax rates. These rates can also change without much notice. Since we can't know the exact charge ahead of time, we aren't able to cover it.
What you may need to pay on non-US orders:
- Import duties and taxes, such as VAT or GST
- Customs clearance and brokerage fees
- Any carrier handling fees
The carrier usually collects these charges before or at delivery. To find out what you might owe, contact your local customs office before you order.
