The reason for using skulls on prayer beads is said to be that, in the old days, before Buddhist altars and the like were invented, people would turn the heads of their ancestors into Buddhas or use them as graves.
Also, skulls have been used as talismans and talismans since ancient times, so they are carved out of various materials.
This bracelet is carved out of boxwood.
Boxwood is a small evergreen tree that grows to about 1-4m in height, and has a heavy specific gravity, dense grain, and high elasticity.
It has high oil permeability, making it the best material for fine craftsmanship like combs.
Boxwood is also used as a material for shogi pieces.
The "crack!" sound that is made when a piece is struck is apparently a sound quality unique to boxwood.
