Our Gold Sheen Obsidian Mala is one of our newest collection of stone malas. It is deep black with a subtle gold sheen that is picked up by light and movement.
Gold sheen obsidian is said to help clear, absorb and shield negative energies from the environment, especially where there is a need for calm and soothing.
People have traditionally used gold sheen obsidian to assist in introspection and bring balance to the body, mind and spirit. A perfect guide and protector stone.
Known as japamala, prayer beads, or Buddhist beads, mala beads originated in ancient India. The term “Mala” translates to “garland” in Sanskrit. Using Mala beads in meditation involves repeating a chosen mantra or focusing on the breath with each bead.
Mala beads have a rich history deeply rooted in the religions of India, including Buddhism and Hinduism. They are similar to prayer beads from other world religions as well, like the rosary of Christianity and the misbaha of Islam. Today mala beads don’t necessarily hold a religious connotation. People often wear them as part of meditation or mindfulness practice. People may also wear them simply because of their aesthetic charm.

Nicely strung; quality beads
Amazing product. The beads were smaller than I expected, but how simply high quality they look and feel earned them the 5/5. The biggest bead is also the heaviest which was a delightful surprise while sitting! I am a happy customer once again!
Good quality work and materials. Arrived quickly also.
