Unique Red – Coral Prayer Beads

   SUMMARY 

• Collected personally during my extensive travels through the high-altitude regions of Tibet, these red coral beads are a rare vestige of the 19th century. In the Himalayan tradition, red coral is revered as a “stone of the blood,” believed to have originated from the very essence of the earth to sustain the human spirit. These beads show the beautiful, waxy texture and soft edges that only come from generations of being held during prayer and mantra recitation. They carry the warmth of the sun and the grounded strength of the ancient plateau.
