Dramatic patterns of dark and light green that is typical of malachite. There are 108 beads plus one head bead.
Mala means "garland" in Sanskrit and has traditionally been used for keeping count while chanting or reciting verbally or mentally. Many explanations have been given for the number 108 and one by Hindu numerologists says: one stands for oneness with God and the Higher Truth; zero represents emptiness, non-attachment and therefore completeness of spiritual practice; and eight is symbolic of infinity or a never-ending wheel of life. The three concepts together contain the wholeness of existence.
