This is a high quality 8mm mala made from A grade Ebony wood. 108 prayer beads- the Main beads: Ebony (approx. 0.3 inch (8 mm)); with marker beads made from tiger’s eye stone (approx. 0.6 inch (14 mm)); and the parent bead is a fantastic Tiger eye stone (approx. 0.4 inch (13 mm)); The tassel: 2 colored strings. These Buddhist prayer beads are strung on durable cord with handwoven Japanese kumihimo knot.About Ebony:
The material is dense and heavy and solid black core portions of the wood is used as craft wood for furniture, altar, building materials, musical instruments, and brush handles. By using tiger eye stones as accents it gives it a sense of luxury. The tassel is finished with a fashionable two-color knit cord, hand knotted.Healing Properties:
Tiger’s Eye: The chosen material for His Holiness the Dalai Lama’s own mala. It is folklored as a power stone. Tiger’s Eye has a wonderful reputation for attracting wealth, money, and luck. However, it has powerful spiritual uses as well. The liquid movement of light across the stone makes it an excellent tool for vision or divination work.Complimentary Pouch

I like the Wrist Mala very well, except that it fits a little tight on my wrist. I would rather have it a little larger so I wouldn’t have to take it off. It is tight enough that it leave impressions on my wrist and I worry about circulation over the long term.

Ken, Hi, these are one size fits most, you can add a bead or two that you get from a local Michael’s Crafts- “Imported malas strung on elastic, (stretch malas) can break after a very short time, so we recommend that you purchase a small spool of “Stretch Magic” from your local Michael’s Crafts to keep on-hand.”

Thank you for this mala I am pleased with the fit. The Buddha head has a little distortion but I am ok with it. I will be making more purchases through you guys in the future.

Perfect fit for me. I have small wrists so if you’re a male this will probably be way too tight! I love the little Buddha charm.
