The mala features 108 smoky agate beads and is finished with a modern true agate 3-eyed Dzi bead and brass accents. The 3-eyed Dzi represents the three stars of luck: happiness, honor and longevity. It is the bead of wealth, health, and said to bring continuous fortunes. Agate is known to be a stone of strength, and can help to balance yin/yang energies, courage, protection, healing, and calming. Metaphysically, agate has a lower intensity and vibrates to a slower frequency than other stones, but is highly regarded as a stabilizing and strengthening influence. Mala measures approximately 32 inches around. Beads are about 8mm. 3-eyed Dzi measures about 1 1/2 inches long and 1/2 inch wide. Made in Nepal.
