Dramatic Lapis Lazuli and Pearl OOAK Tibetan Style Mala Necklace with Silver Accents and Handmade Tassel

:: New Mexico Sky Mala ::

I chose this color of lapis lazuli very carefully to match the peerless blue of our New Mexico skies. It’s a softer blue than the more intense, gem grade lapis and is called “denim lapis” in the trade, with inclusions of white calcite and glimmers of pyrite throughout. Lapis has been beloved as a precious stone since ancient times. Its energy is thought to enhance inner vision and spiritual guidance, supporting the opening of the third eye and enhancing the intellect. There’s also an aura of royalty or nobility to it that is very uplifting. Good for these times!

With it are four large baroque freshwater pearls dyed in deep iridescent blues, greens and violets. This is a Tibetan style mala, with the pearls serving as three spacer beads dividing the 108 lapis beads into four sections of 27. They are bracketed by handmade Thai and Bali silver beads. Tiny silvery glass seed beads separate them all, giving it the feel and drape of a knotted piece. I also like the feel of that bit of gap between the mala beads while meditating; it makes them more comfortable somehoe and easier to pass through the fingers. The mala is strung on silk cord.

A stormy grey handmade cotton tassel, wrapped with metallic silver thread, anchors the mala.

Made with intention, absolutely one of a kind.

For desert spirits and fearless souls…
