SERPENTINE JADE MALA PRAYER BEADS
This Serpentine Jade Mala is hand-strung with care, with each 8mm bead selected for quality and beauty. Designed for meditation practice and mantra recitation across different spiritual traditions, this mala features 108 beads, finished with a natural cotton tassel.Why Serpentine Jade?
The name Serpentine is derived from the Latin “serpentinus,” meaning resembling a serpent, historically referencing the stone’s mottled green patterns that emulate the texture of a snake’s skin. Revered for centuries across ancient civilizations from Central America to East Asia, it holds a prominent place in traditional lapidary arts, architectural ornaments, and sacred talismans. Today, this beautiful mineral is mindfully sourced from notable deposits in regions including Burma, Peru, New Zealand, and the United States.A complex silicate mineral group, Serpentine Jade is distinguished by its translucent to opaque quality and smooth, slightly waxy luster. Its distinctive multi-toned green coloration is formed through hydrothermal alteration of ultramafic rocks, giving each bead a rich variation of deep forest tones and lighter inclusions that catch the light beautifully during practice.Gemstone Properties
