This beautiful antique amulet was hand selected by me at the antique market opposite the famous Chatuchak market in Bangkok, Thailand. I spent hours wandering around, talking to local stand holders and feeling the energy of many amulets before making my selections.
The people of Thailand usually select a number of amulets that they wear around their neck for life.They are believed to bestow several benefits on their owners: wealth, health, good fortune, social success and karmic merit. They’re also assumed to protect their wearers from physical harm, including road accidents. It is also a Thai tradition to place amulets under a stupa or other temple structure during its construction.
Once I returned to Bali, Indonesia I had the amulet strung into a 108 bead Mala.
For this one-of-a-kind 108 bead Mala I selected it to be strung with a combination of multi colored AGATE beads.
