tibetan prayer beads

Macro Mondays 'speckled' theme.

 

Tibetan prayer or meditation beads made from Picture Jasper crystal.

 

Picture Jasper is a variety of Brown Jasper. It is a grounding and harmonizing gemstone with a tough connection to the earth. It is said to encourage feelings of dependability towards the planet, heartening a need to care for and keep it.

 

It is a gemstone that usually consists of a combination of petrified mud in pockets of earliest volcanic rock in such a way that it produces a “picture”, which is referred as picture jasper.

 

Each bead measures just under .75 cm in diameter
