This one of a kind necklace is hand-knotted with 8mm Indian Rudraksha seed beads, rose quartz, and agate. The guru bead on this necklace is one large Rudraksha seed that measures just over 1/2 inch. The necklace length including the tassel is 23" long. Rudraksha is the seed of a specific tree that grows in the Himalayas, India, and Southeast Asia. The term "rudraksha" is a compound of "rudra" and "aksha." Rudra is one particular form of Shiva, also known as the Roarer. "Aksha" means "tear drops". The legend goes that once, Shiva, after many millennia of meditation, opened his eyes. Such was the bliss and ecstasy that pervaded his body, that a tear drop trickled from his eye and fell to the ground, to become a Rudraksha tree. To care for this necklace, one can lightly coat the seeds with oil. This will make the beads a bit darker in color, but it will prevent them from drying out over a long period of time.
