Each set of prayer beads is crafted as a work of art and made to last a lifetime. The wood is Oak that has been discovered buried beneath the earth from trees that died and fell thousands of years ago. The discovery of the wood is a by-product of land being cultivated.
Preserved under anaerobic conditions for thousands of years the colour of the wood turns into a range of greys, blacks and browns. Having been buried for so long the wood holds a resonance of deep silence.
In Sanskrit the word for Oak is, ‘Duir’ (door), Oak is recognised as a sacred spiritual gateway. It is cherished across the world as a symbol of wisdom, strength and endurance.
Each bead is individually hand-carved, one set of 99 beads can take 3-4 weeks to carve. Commissions are accepted for a bespoke piece.
A set of 33 beads fits comfortably into one’s pocket, a constant reminder of one’s practice. The sturdy and tactile form makes them particularly desirable to hold onto, day and night. The 99 beads can be worn around the neck.
The Prayer Beads are designed to last a lifetime, holding all the spiritual energy of your prayers and practices, just holding them can be of benefit.
