Men's prayer beads, boxwood, skull carving, 18 beads, made to order

Skull beads, each bead carefully hand-carved

Skulls have been used as talismans and amulets since ancient times.

By wearing something scary yourself,
the demons watching from the outside will be frightened, and skulls have been used as talismans and amulets.

Even today in China, you can see them displayed on the doors of houses like talismans.

The material used for this skull carving is boxwood.

Boxwood is an evergreen tree that is about 1-4 meters tall. It has a heavy specific gravity, dense grain, is highly elastic, and has high oil permeability, making it the best material for fine craftsmanship such as combs.

Boxwood is also used as a material for shogi pieces.

The "crack!" sound that is made when you strike a piece is a quality that is unique to boxwood.

These prayer beads are carefully hand-carved by craftsmen one by one, and are of very high quality, with a warmth that can only be achieved through hand-made workmanship.

Please try these prayer beads with skulls, which are also popular as a motif. Main bead: approx. 1.9cm (boxwood)
