Thuja wood. Water drop beads. 36 pieces. Polished smooth.
Thuja (also known as arborvitae or "tree of life") is an aromatic conifer wood with a distinctive warm grain and natural fragrance. In Chinese Buddhist and spiritual jewelry traditions, thuja wood is valued for its fine texture, workability, and the subtle woody scent it retains after polishing. This bracelet features 36 water drop-shaped thuja beads — a teardrop silhouette rather than the standard round bead, giving it a more sculptural, contemporary look while staying within the mala/prayer bead tradition.
36 is a meaningful bead count in Buddhist practice — one third of the traditional 108, used for shorter meditation sessions or as a wrist mala. 8mm bead size, polished to a smooth finish. Handcrafted in Putian, Fujian — a region with a long tradition of Buddhist wood carving and bead craftsmanship.
