These beads are called Fujiunseki, a natural stone characterized by a calm pale purple color.

Among amethysts, a whitish stone is called Fujiunseki because it looks like a cloud of wisteria.

The purple Fujiunseki has been used as a material for rosaries and other items since ancient times, and has been treasured as a talisman to protect oneself from evil spirits, and there is also a legend that wearing it brings merit.

It combines the impression of a noble purple color and a gentle white color.

These beads can be used by people of all ages.
Please try Fujiunseki, which gives a calm impression.

About the sect

Regarding Shingon Buddhist prayer beads, one theory is that they were the first to bring prayer beads to Japan.

Therefore, their shape is very similar to the formal prayer beads used by all eight sects.
They often have two tassels on the front and back, with a red string running through them.

Also, the prayer beads carried on pilgrimages are slightly longer versions of these Shingon Buddhist prayer beads.

These are the most classic of the classic prayer beads. Be sure to get yours soon.
