UNUSUAL Rosewood Mala 107 Beads Wooden Bead Garland Necklace Rosary Hand Carved
Unique hand carved beads made from a tropical hardwood, most likely rosewood but could be something like jarrah or eucalyptus. Reddish purple color of the wood even where it is scratched or cracked. Beads are hand-carved artisan made in a village home and are not perfectly shaped like machine made beads.
There are 107 beads plus the 108 th bead that holds the yellow floss tassel. This is an imperfect and unique item as in most places the traditional mala beads would have 108 plus the guru bead.
Beads are strung simply, without being individually knotted.
I collect unusual handmade malas and found this one in rural Northern India. It was made by locals for locals, and not the commercial mass market.
I have only one like this, so if it calls your name, don’t wait! 📿 Or see my Closet for more yoga and mantra mala beads. Make a bundle!
New but vintage, in my personal art collection for over 20 years. There is no brand tag per se, as this was a small village product.
Approx 30” total length not including tassel. Tassel is just a few strands, hand tied, unlike the full tassel that is more common nowadays.
I cannot guarantee wood composition so choose this item for its beautiful uniqueness.
