Tassel-Less Malas
Sakura
Designs hand-selects the materials used in crafting your mala. We have enjoyed trading in beads, and directly importing for over 12 years. We purchase directly from the stone cutters, which is why we are able to offer such low prices.
Most of the beads that we choose are carefully measured when they are made, a process called "calibration," to ensure roundness and regularity, and range from A to B+ quality. Most of our Sakura Design malas are made with the traditional 8mm beads*, and a finished mala is approx. 18-21 inches long (36" circumference).
We are sure that you will appreciate our quality, and we are honored to be of help with creating your special mala! Made in the USA, unless otherwise noted.
*All materials are guaranteed to be undyed, natural stones with the exception of our color enhanced red coral, and pressed Lapis, as noted.
*Most Malas are made to order, and as with all natural stones and monitor variations, actual colors may vary slightly from web images. Customers can specify the color and placement of the three "marker beads" used to divide Mala and tassel color. We will do our best to accommodate custom requests with materials available. Each piece is one-of-a-kind and considered a "work of art." Malas will be sent as close to the web image as possible depending on available materials, if no custom requests are required. Complimentary Mala bag is offered in assorted colors, and we make the best effort to choose a harmonious color and style. If you'd like you Mala redesigned or if your mala breaks after our warranty period, we offer restringing service for $18
