HESSONITE GARNET MALA – 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 Hessonite Garnet Mala is hand-strung with high-durability stainless steel bead cable in our Boulder studio, with each 6mm faceted bead individually inspected before it’s ever used. No mass production. No shortcuts. Just a mala designed to hold up to thousands of repetitions, finished with a luxurious silk, cotton, and natural rayon blend tassel.About Hessonite Garnet

Sourced primarily from rich deposits in Sri Lanka and India, Hessonite has been used in sacred practice and royal adornment for over 2,000 years.Known in Vedic astrology as “Gomed,” this warm honey-to-cinnamon colored gemstone belongs to the grossular garnet mineral family, radiating with a rich inner glow that seems to capture sunlight itself.Traditional Associations
