Sandalwood Hands Necklace

The gloss of these pleasantly plump beads makes them look like delicate sweets, forged by the hands of the Gods, as seen at the heart of the necklace.

STORIES BEHIND THE BEADS

Originating from India, sandalwood is a common type of bead used to make Malas - loops of prayer beads commonly used by yogis and spiritual seekers to keep their minds focused during meditation.

According to Aristotle, the hand is the "tool of tools." It represents strength, power, and protection as well as generosity, hospitality, and stability. To me, it represents community and closeness. What does it represent to you?

MATERIALS

Brass and wood.

JEWELLERY CARE

Brass is a natural material and will develop a patina over time giving your necklace a beautiful character. If you prefer your brass shiny, it can be restored with a brass metal polish.

All other components can be cleaned with a soft, damp cloth when needed.

Your necklace can last a lifetime if stored in a pouch or box and kept away from water, perfumes and harsh cleaning products.
