A 108-bead mala made from lapis lazuli, deep royal blue with the fine gold flecks that mark genuine, untreated stone. The beads in this short mala are 6-7mm, hand-strung with a slightly larger lapis guru bead and finished with a blue cord.
Lapis lazuli has been valued since antiquity, often ground into pigment for sacred art, carved into seals and amulets across ancient Mesopotamia and Egypt. For Tibetan Buddhists, it is a stone associated with wisdom, truth, and clarity of mind. This connection carries directly into Buddhist iconography: the Medicine Buddha (Sangye Menla) is depicted in a deep lapis lazuli blue, the colour representing the pure, radiant quality of healing he embodies.
