AMETHYST AND JADE MALA PRAYER BEADS – MADE TO ORDER IN BOULDER, COLORADO
A meditation tool built to last as long as your practice.Most malas fall apart after a few weeks of daily use: threads fray, knots loosen, beads crack and tassels unravel. This one won’t. Every Amethyst Mala is hand-strung with stainless steel bead cable or strong knotting cord in our Boulder studio, with each 8mm bead inspected for structural integrity before it’s ever used. No mass production. No shortcuts. Just a mala designed to hold up to thousands of repetitions, finished with a natural cotton tassel.Why Amethyst?
Historically valued as one of the most precious and significant stones belonging to the Quartz family of minerals, Amethyst holds an esteemed place in human history. Because its rich violet-purple hue has long been considered a color of royalty, Amethyst was frequently utilized throughout antiquity across Europe and Asia as a sacred insignia of power and spiritual devotion. Today, this iconic mineral is mined from prominent global deposits in Brazil, India, Madagascar, Russia, Uruguay, and Zambia.Belonging to the macrocrystalline branch of Quartz, Amethyst owes its beautiful, signature violet-purple color to natural iron and aluminum impurities trapped within its crystalline structure. Displaying a beautiful vitreous luster, the stone naturally varies from soft, translucent lavenders to deep, velvety purples, making each polished bead unique.Gemstone Properties
