How the S string is built
Five cotton flags of about 12.5×12.5 cm are threaded on a cord roughly 120 cm long. The whole string weighs 12 grams, so it is light and easy to position. The flags alternate in white, red, blue, yellow and green, each carrying the traditional prints and mantra texts kept by Tibetan Buddhist tradition.
Origin and craftsmanship
The string is made in Nepal, where craftspeople print mantras on cotton fabric with wood blocks. The multi-step process ensures that the centuries-old pattern stays recognisable on every flag. You receive an item that represents genuine Himalayan craft, not a factory copy.
Where to place it in your home
The S size is the most common choice because it fits a smaller balcony, a window frame or a meditation room wall. You can stretch it between two hooks, tie it next to a houseplant, or even put it in the garden between trees. The 120 cm cord is long enough for the wind to gently move the flags.
How to care for it over the years
Cotton gradually fades in sunlight and rain, which tradition sees as part of the mantras spreading out. If you do want to clean it, rinse it gently by hand in lukewarm water and let it dry without wringing. Never use strong detergents or bleach, as they would damage the plant-based inks.
