The three main adornments of the cord
This 50-centimetre cord brings together three different decorative elements in a single piece. The first is the Rudraksha seed, long appreciated in India as a natural material. The second is the OM symbol, regarded in several spiritual traditions as the primordial sound of creation. The third is the row of small metal bells, which give a delicate, chiming sound when air sets them in motion. With a single decoration, you can thus give the room three different moods.
Where to hang it
You can hang the cord on the inside of the front door, where it will greet every arriving person with a small chime. You can place it near a window, where the movement of air softly sounds it. In a quieter area of your home, for example in a corner of the living room or beside the bedroom window, it also serves as a decoration. You can freely choose its place; thanks to the 84-gram weight, the cord can be easily fixed anywhere.
The Rudraksha seed and the OM symbol
In Indian tradition, the Rudraksha is a symbol of perseverance and composure. The brown seed has a textured surface, and every bead has a unique pattern. The OM symbol is one of the best-known symbols of Hindu and Buddhist tradition. You need not identify with this interpretation: you can simply enjoy the cord as a decoration and as a pleasant source of sound.
Material and dimensions
The total length of the cord is 50 centimetres, and the total weight is approximately 84 grams. The bells are made of metal, the seeds from naturally dried fruit, and the OM symbols from wood or metal. You receive a light yet substantial, eye-catching piece, packed in cardboard packaging.
Cleaning and durability
From time to time, gently shake the cord so that the dust falls off. The bells can be wiped with a soft, dry cloth. Please avoid washing with water, as the wooden OM symbol and the natural seed may deform. Store it hanging or loosely suspended; do not fold it together, so that the cord does not become twisted.
