Hippy ShackHippy Shack Mala Beads - Buddhist Mallah Beads - 108 Pieces - Red Wooden Round Beads - Meditation, Spiritual Practices

The mala beads are beautiful and we'll strung. The little hand made box they came in with the meditation inscription on it too. Thankyou

Liked the box with printed advice. nice extra gift that is personal and thoughtful. Bought one for a friend in need of de-stressing, then bought one for myself and my 3 kids.

Both beads and box where as shown in the original add, craftsmanship on both are very good, I am actually using them to help me with my anxiety and they are helping along with mantras,

Liked the box hand made the beads simple but a great start Find them very calming Tassel a bit skinny otherwise fine.

Have ordered these beads before they're perfect

This is the review that should guide you as just bought this. I like the Mala beads and the Buddhist tradition. The beads are what t hey are supposed to be, and 108 beads. They come in 108, or 116 length (but not this version). For me, 108 beads in probably 20-30 too short, but can get over head as do not have any 'join' device. The small yellow (or sometimes red) tail on the end of beads is flimsy and tiny, and looks cheap. It arrived looking all squashed too. The other issue is the beads are a bit tight to flex - and so do not bend in an easy flowing way. So, to summarise, you just get what you pay for, the quality is very basic. It's not feminine of masculine so no issue there. The box looked a bit worn as others have said, or a bit squashed too. Probably whoever made these got paid a few cents for doing so, and maybe that shows. If you want a nice set of Mala beads that feel and look good, do not buy these. if you think very basic ok and you want cheap (think these are worth maybe £3 at most) then these are ok.

My boss originally go this beads in Tibet years and years ago, but lost them last year when abroad and in the sea.he was heartbroken.I managed to get these beads for him and he swears they are the same beads, the same colour and everything. He is happily wearing them about the place now, content that he has some Buddhist beads back.They are very good quality, and according to him, the same style, colour, and quality you would get in Tibet.The only difference is, these ones haven't been blessed

They broke after counting 3 times. The tassel fell off after 2nd count, then the bead string fell apart too. So, not very good quality.
