## About this gift

A 108 bead mala in white quartz is a rosary for keeping count while chanting a mantra, for mantra chanters and crystal lovers. It serves japa, the Sanskrit practice of reciting or silently repeating a mantra or a deity's name, so it suits anyone who counts their prayers.

The mala has 108 beads of about 0.6 to 0.8 cm, strung into a loop 60 to 80 cm long, and each stone varies a little in size. In Hindu tradition you use it with the right hand, flicking one bead at a time with the thumb and draping it over the middle finger.

White quartz suits a birthday, a thank you or a Christmas gift for someone who chants. Its 108 beads are there for every round of counting. Pick this white quartz mala for the mantra chanter in your life.
