This mala is strung with Bodhi seeds on a 2mm red cord and turquoise/coral and white-bone spacers and two matching counters.

It has been strung with an adjustable slip knot at the guru bead that enables the user to control the spacing and the mala's tightness or looseness.
Pink Lotus Thangka and Dharma was developed as a means to support Nepalese artisans struggling in Nepals poor economic climate. "Skilled artists and craftsmen were being driven from their trade by financial hardship and many were taking to manual labour abroad. The net result was a gradual erosion of skills that dated back many centuries." Pink Lotus supports these artisans and to tries to preserve their rich culture by providing an outlet for their work.
