The professional-grade threading features an adjustable knot, perfectly tensioned for the unique drape of these sleek rondelle beads.

Why Imperial Glass & Lapis Lazuli?

This design is a modern hybrid inspired by traditional Tibetan Buddhist Malas and Imperial court prayer beads, known as Chaozhu during the Qing Dynasty. Originally adapted from Buddhist rosaries, these formal 108-bead necklaces were worn by emperors, royal family members, and high-ranking officials as powerful symbols of rank, spiritual focus, and religious devotion. Traditionally crafted from the finest materials, they served to help practitioners focus on overcoming spiritual obstacles and maintaining mental clarity during practice.The main body features luminous high-clarity glass rondelles with a sophisticated satin finish that reflects light with a soft, ethereal glow. This brilliant aesthetic is beautifully anchored by a massive 15mm genuine rock quartz crystal focal bead, deep celestial blue natural Lapis Lazuli markers, and 14k gold-plated accents—including traditional decorative bell and dorje counters alongside a gold vermeil Om bum counter mala clip.

Gemstone Properties

Natural Lapis Lazuli has been traditionally associated with:

• Deep Inner Peace (A historic symbol of serenity and stress release)
• Self-Awareness and Truth (Cultivating honesty, compassion, and clarity of mind)
• Focused Expression (Encouraging clear, confident communication during practice)
• Mindfulness and Balance (A timeless stone used across cultures for deep contemplation)

Genuine Rock Quartz has been traditionally associated with:

• Amplification of Intention (Acting as a focal point for grounding daily meditation)
• Clarity and Concentration (Enhancing mental focus and clearing distracting thoughts)
• Spiritual Alignment (Harmonizing the physical and meditative planes for a deeper practice)

Each 8x5mm bead displays the natural, light-catching luster of transparent satin-finish glass. The deep blue Lapis Lazuli markers provide visual rhythm for mantra counting, while 14k gold-plated spacers add brilliant contrast.
