This is a hand crafted 108 Bead Buddhist Mala made with 8mm round Fossilized Coral (AKA Chrysanthemum Jasper) beads. These are a very high quality selection of Fossil Coral. I am extremely pleased to offer such an exceptional quality of this unique stone.
Agatized Fossil coral is a natural gemstone that is created when prehistoric coral is gradually replaced with agate. Corals are marine animals and it is their skeletons that are fossilized and preserved. The fossil coral forms through hardened deposits left by silica-rich waters. The entire process can take over 20 million years.
The first set of images on the white background are the closest to the brown overtone of all the beads. The other dharma brocade background images show off the variety of colors and patterns fossil coral is know to embody. The black nylon cord and sliding knot allows for customizing your tension and also allows for the space needed to use and move Bhum Counters.
This Mala is approximately 17.0 inches or 43.2 centimeters in length.
Perfect for Buddhist practitioners from many traditions. Accurate, beautiful, and hand crafted these Malas make the perfect gift, offering, or personal Dharma accessory to enhance and support your practice.
Hand crafted by myself, a Buddhist artist practitioner here in the United States.
