🧵 Handmade in Tibet with Intention

This wrist mala was hand-strung in Tibet, using 30–40-year-old Bodhi seeds sourced from a vintage mala. The original energy remains — only now, it’s compact and ready for daily wear.

The strand is finished with a durable, non-stretch red cord and a matching red tassel. The Bodhi seed guru and stupa beads were chosen to complete the mala in a way that honors its origin and flow.
