$280.00 USD

We have prepared prayer beads for the Jodo sect made of Yakusugi, which is characterized by its fine patterns!


Generally, it is said that the lifespan of a cedar tree is 500 years, but Yakusugi is extraordinarily long.


Trees that are over 1000 years old are called Yakusugi, and those under 100 years old are called Kosugi.

As you know, Yakusugi is also a World Heritage Site. Because Yakusugi is a World Heritage Site, only fallen trees can be processed.


One of the characteristics of Yakusugi is that the annual rings are very fine among trees, which attracts people who see them.

Also, as is the case with all trees, the more you use them, the deeper the color becomes.

I think that if you add a deep color to the fine pattern of the annual rings that is unique to Yakusugi, you will grow to love them more and more.


These prayer beads are made of wood, so they can be worn by people of all ages.

It is also said that even if you just carry a rosary as a talisman, it will protect you from misfortune, so it would make a great gift.
