JUZ

Buddhist Hand Mala Prayer beads, also called "Juzu" or "Ojuzu". Juzu are long hand malas, approx. 11 inches around, and depending on bead size, often have 21,27 or 36 beads. They have 3 inch long Japanese Style double tassels (unless otherwise noted). Juzu are well made in Japan from assorted materials and colors with a complimentary sage green Japanese gift box.

Juzu are frequently given as gifts - for example - to celebrate a birth, marriage, a coming-of-age, etc. They are also given as keepsakes and a source of protection to loved ones. Imported from Kyoto Japan.
