Black quartz with silver beads Opa beads necklace

Opa beads are similar to what in French would be called a chapelet, in German a rosenkranz, Italian a rosario. They are similar to what in Hindu and Buddhist cultures is called a mala, and in Muslim tradition a masbaha. Opas are closely related to Greek komboloy, worn as a symbol by those who wanted to live away from rules and choose their own style, music, and language, and mark of freedom. Opa is a powerful “yes” to life. Each strand was made by hand in Greece. The patented clasp allows for ease and variety of usage-just remove the clasp for a different style!
