This mala includes 28 vintage Bodhi beads, each about 8.10×11mm, plus a deer bone guru bead. The feel is natural, the energy is steady — perfect for daily wear or mindful moments.

🧵 Handmade in Tibet With Patience and Purpose

This piece was handmade in Tibet, using 40–50-year-old Bodhi seeds reclaimed from a long-practiced mala. Every bead was carefully chosen and re-strung by hand, giving it fresh life while honoring its past.

It’s strung on a durable red cord, accented with a subtle tassel and grounded by a deer bone guru bead — a nod to impermanence, nature, and the sacred cycle of life.
