Like you, each sandalwood and amethyst bead in this simple, yet stunning 108-bead mala is utterly unique. Notice the lovely contrast in the smoothness of each bead as it passes through your fingers. Sandalwood has been revered for centuries in Ayurvedic tradition for its purifying and calming properties, while amethyst, long associated with the crown chakra, encourages contemplation and spiritual understanding. Taking a special place on his personal altar, Panache imbues this mala with his own unique and loving energy in order to allow the wearer to be fully present in every moment.
