Collection: #oneofakind Mala Necklaces

Handpicked Cabochons from the Tucson Gem Show. It took over 8 months to find someone to drill these beauties. And as you can see it was worth the wait!

Mala beads are used in other cultures and religions but are known by different names, such as prayer beads, rosary beads, and worry beads. Over two-thirds of the world’s population employ some type of counting beads as part of their spiritual practice. The use of beads in prayer appears to have originated around the 8th century B.C.E. in India.
