Description
A very special find! Malas of this type and quality don’t come around very often. The 13 mm beads are taken from the thinnest part of the skull, or sliced.
Sadly, there are only 97 original beads, we have filled in 11 new beads to make a complete 108 bead mala, 3 each at the cardinal points, and one each on either side of the guru bead. We have strung it with an antique Persian Guru Bead.
Rare beautiful.
Included with a silk brocade purse.
13 mm beads About 12″ long.
