Like the ocean at night, onyx reflects without revealing its true depth. The stone of guidance and endurance, black onyx is knotted by hand on pure black silk and completed with a handmade tassel with a silver lotus-bud bead. Our hand cast lotus bud beads symbolically display the wearer's ability to renew him or herself, and the infinite potential of each new day. Our malas are about 36" long and knotted by hand on pure silk with 108 hand-faceted beads.
