Mala or Short Mala in Apatite, Amazonite, and Aquamarine – Symbol of Compassionate Communication

One of a Kind

Why I Created It

These three stones share an affinity for calm, clear expression — I brought them together for anyone working on communicating more openly and gently, both with others and with themselves.

Materials & Meaning

Apatite is traditionally associated with mental clarity and communication. Aquamarine is traditionally linked to calm and inner tranquility. Amazonite is traditionally associated with emotional balance and serenity.

The hand-painted blue and green ceramic heart pendant comes from Arizona, crafted by Native American artisans. It's a reminder of the importance of non-violent, compassionate communication — toward others, and especially toward oneself. A small Om charm accompanies the heart.

Technical Details

– Natural stones (8 mm): apatite, amazonite, and aquamarine
– Ceramic heart pendant with Om charm
– Ultra-resistant waxed cord
– Nickel- and lead-free alloy and steel finishes

Available Variants

Full Mala — 108 beads (8 mm), length approximately 44 in (110 cm) + pendant. Perfect for traditional meditation and if this is your first mala.

Short Mala — 81 beads (8 mm), length approximately 32 in (80 cm) + pendant. A lighter, more practical version, easy to wear every day.

Traditionally, a mala is composed of 108 beads, or of exact fractions such as 54, 27, or 18. This Short Mala uses 81 beads — a practical, widely used count today, though not part of that original fraction sequence. It's still easier to count during meditation and lighter to wear.

Authenticity

Every stone is genuine and untreated — never dyed or heat-treated — hand-knotted on a cord built to last.
