TURQUOISE MAGNESITE AND LAPIS LAZULI 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 Turquoise Magnesite 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 Turquoise Magnesite?
Magnesite has a rich history in lapidary arts and traditional adornment, frequently prized for its striking textural similarity to classic turquoise. Historically used by various cultures for decorative and ceremonial objects, it serves as a beautiful connection to ancient southwestern and global jewelry traditions. Today, major deposits of this distinctive mineral are mindfully sourced from historic localities in Austria, Italy, Poland, and the United States.As a natural carbonate mineral, white magnesite beautifully absorbs rich pigments to replicate the sought-after hues of sacred turquoise. Each batch displays an organic spectrum ranging from bright sky blues to deep, greenish teal greens, complete with intricate, naturally occurring matrix inclusions that mirror the raw beauty of the earth.Gemstone Properties
