BALIBALI8MM Beads Chakra Long Mala Necklace Natural Stone Meditation Statement Necklace Japa Yoga Buddhist Rosary Prayer Charm Beaded Tassel Necklace

I bought this as a gift for someone and just visited them months after ordering. I counted the beads and there were only 103, not 108 as promised. It's not up for return or exchange so that's unfortunate. The whole point of this was for the product to have the correct amount of beads for ritual practice and chanting.

This review will have typos due to broken keyboard. I hope this review is helpful.Originally, I bought this mala for myself but... it was SO PERFEKT on my husband's wrist, I knew it was 'his.' I liked it so muxh I ordered another for myself.The produkt is exaktly as deskribed. I have no idea the 'staying power' of the tassel - but... I figure if you don't squash it into the tiny itsy bitsy pouxh that komes in the nise box, you're better off.The produkt komes in a box - whish is I think the best way to store it bekause the pouxh that komes in the box is skimpy - and not at all big enough to 'house' the tassel without krushing it. That's the only negative thing I kan say about this - and it's no big deal - the box is great! Sturdy and perfekt to keep this mala when it's not worn or in use.If you use this for spiritual praktise, losing the tassel would be a bit off-putting bekause the 'guru bead' is also the same size as the rest of the mala - so the tassel is the referense point only for the end-point of the mala - more or less. At the prise point of this item, I don't think it's a problem, but for some... it might be.The stones are wonderful! I love the variety of the mala - if anything, it kould be more varied. I bought the 'Amazonite' version. And I don't think for a sekond it's all Amazonite. But I DO like the energy that kame with the mala. And I LOVE how it feels. It's SUBSTANTIAL - and that's a GOOD thing! I had a mala with tiny beads and it was very unkomfortable whereas this is a dream.It's about 42" in length, so bear that in mind. Also, I wore my former mala - before it broke - around my wrist. This will wrap more easily if you don't bend it right away... but rather, work it in spiritual praktise! As oils from your skin work their way into the mala, the mala , in turn, will also respond by being more pliable.It seems to 'love' being handled - and... within about an hour, I notised that it gets more workable, and it bekomes almost like a sekond skin.So I definitely enjoy this produkt... and loved that it 'belonged with' my husband. If I had wanted to order one for him, he wouldn't have been half as happy as to spontaneously handle a mala and hear me say, "Oh wow... that's got your name on it honey!" That's why you never know with these things! You may think you're buying it for yourself... and find out you're not! hahahaI am looking forward to our sekond household mala arriving in a few days. And I think it's a great produkt and if it's treated with kindness and kare, it will never fail to mirror bak that effort. At least that's my philosophy. We'll see if this bears out.But to anyone thinking they should stuff it in the provided pouxh? I wouldn't! I would let it breathe - in the box, it's got 'room' - and - all fabriks need to 'breathe' to stay fresh. So I would treat the silk and the knots to lots of air and keep it as flat as possible, so there's no stress on the tassel part of the neklase when it's laid down - if that makes sense to anyone. Or maybe I just am super kareful after having broken so many pieses of jewelry in my life.Hope this review is helpful! And... here's to hopefully a tassel that survives! hahaha I try to stay away from that part of the mala anyway given my history with jewelry in general.My husband LOVES it. And it REALLY is a lovely feel for anyone with long fingers or a big hand who uses the beads as intended. Very GLAD I purshased! Definitely rekommend!

I love the necklace but it arrived broken. I reattached the tassel. (It wasn’t as easy as I thought it would be.) I have continued to have problems with the tassel, but the beads are nice and feel substantial.

Beautiful, heavy, high quality stones and hand knotted between each stone. I'm incredibly impressed with this after having bought another offline that was more expensive and very cheaply made. I'll definitely be returning it and ordering more from this company.

The part the goes around the top of the tassel is coming undone and I'm not sure how it ties to fix it. Bummed I loved this thing but I haven't even had it very long and it's not wearable.

At first this was great, but after only wearing it 3 times the tassel just fell apart while I was at work. I noticed a pile of string on the floor and quickly realized it was the tassel from my necklace. So sad. It was beautiful while it lasted.

It's perfect! The majority of the stones I received on the mala are more on the blue green spectrum but I actually like that better! It's well made and feels great. And the price????? So worth it.

These are presented beautifully. They make a lovely gift. However the tassels came off very quickly. I'm still giving a 5 star review because I love them. I meditate with them. Sometimes I even wear it as a bracelet, or necklace. I have seen similar, for WAY MORE!!..
