Men's prayer beads, blue tiger eye stone, 18cm, Zen sect, Soto style, silver ring with string tassel

This rosary uses tiger's eye stone with a deep, shiny navy blue color, and gives the wearer a calm and elegant impression.
Tiger's eye stone creates patterns by shining light collected from various angles along the stone's fibers.

This is why the stone's patterns appear to be floating, and the reflection of the shine looks like lines.

The light pattern is constantly changing, so it is a stone that you will never get bored of looking at.

Tiger's eye stone is also believed to bring good fortune, and is very popular with sales people and those in business.
