Description
This beautiful red sardonyx wrist mala has a classy matte finish. “Sardonyx” comes from the Greek for “reddish brown.”
Romans wore sardonyx talismans to bring good fortune. During the Renaissance sardonyx was believed to give the wearer eloquence, and so was worn by public speakers.
Known as japamala, prayer beads, or Buddhist beads, mala beads originated in ancient India, where practitioners of Buddhism and Hinduism have used them for centuries. The term “Mala” translates to “garland” in Sanskrit, signifying a string of beads used for prayer and meditation. A larger bead, known as the Guru bead, marks the beginning and end of the Mala.
Mala beads can be made from various materials such as wood, seeds, or gemstones, each carrying its own symbolic significance.
