This traditional mala prayer bead necklace is handmade in Nepal using ethically sourced water buffalo bone, with each bead intricately carved with a skull. In Nepalese and Tibetan culture, the skull symbolizes the impermanence of life, reminding practitioners to live mindfully and let go of attachment and ego, core teachings in Buddhism.

The mala features 108 beads, the sacred number used in mantra meditation to count recitations and maintain focus. A mala is similar to a rosary and is used to enhance concentration, clarity, and spiritual awareness during meditation or prayer. This mala can be worn as a necklace or used as a versatile accessory to enhance your boho-chic, free-spirited look. You can hang it on your car mirror, place it on your altar, wrap it around your wrist, or use it as home decor for a touch of mindful style.
