A tender row of soft-pink rose quartz beads – a warm, heart-close companion for meditation and everyday life.
The stone of rose quartz
Rose quartz is the pink variety of quartz; its gentle colour comes from traces of titanium, iron or manganese, with a Mohs hardness of about 7. It ranges from translucent to milky, with chief sources in Brazil and Madagascar. Tradition knows it as the stone of love and the heart, tied to tenderness and self-acceptance. These are traditional ideas, not medical claims.
The 108-bead mala
A mala is the prayer strand of the Hindu and Buddhist traditions, originally used to count mantras during meditation. Beyond the 108 beads, a larger guru bead closes the loop; it stands for wisdom, while the small cylinder above it represents emptiness. The beads pass one by one between the fingers as attention rests on the meaning and vibration of the words. Today many also wear a mala as a wrapped wrist accessory.
How to use it
The soft pink brings a tender mood to practice. Hold the mala during mantra recitation, wear it on the wrist, or give it as a thoughtful gesture.
Material and craft
A 108-bead strand of natural gemstone beads, roughly 37.5 cm long. Because it is made of natural stone, every piece is unique: shade and veining may vary slightly. The mala comes with a decorative brocade pouch that protects it and makes a fitting gift presentation.
Good to know
Wipe the stone with a soft cloth and lukewarm water; avoid prolonged direct sunlight and harsh chemicals. The meaning attached to it comes from tradition and makes no medical claim.
