Moroccan tassels. Vibrant colors. Pure silk. And I'm in love with my new creative passion.
Previous week I spent some time with creating first tassel Mala necklace, and then over the weekend, I ended up having three pieces of jewelry with organic, spiritual and ethnic touch. How about that?

Mala means Prayer beads, or Rosary. Malas have been used by Hindus (as well as Sikhs and Buddhists) as rosary at least from the 10th century onwards for meditation purposes and to sanctify the mind, body and soul. This practice help to center the mind away from distracting thoughts during meditation. As each bead is passed through the fingers the practitioner may recite his or her personal mantra.
I wanted to acknowledge and to express the meditative meaning of the adornment and decided for Tibetan Mala tradition design.
A mala (Tibetan: threngwa, trenwa or tenwa) is an extremely sacred practice support for Vajrayana Buddhists. They are traditionally used as an aid for mantra recitations, while helping to focus awareness and concentration.
Buddhist Malas are made with 108 beads as there are said to be 108 afflictions.Tibetan malas have counter beads at 27 bead intervals to aid the counting process; and so each mala is divided with decorative elements at every 27th bead.
