The Rudrakshanuts have a diameter of about 6mm; per strand of about 40cm you will get about 72 to 78 Rudrakshas.
The color of the beads can vary between different shades of brown.
Especially for knotting gemstone malas the rudraksha beads are used.
The word "Rudraksha" has its origin in two Sanskrit words: "Rudra" (Lord Shiva) and "Aksha" (tears). After meditating for the welfare of all living beings on earth, Shiva awoke, opened his eyes and tears fell on the earth. From these tears then grew the Rudraksha trees. The occasional spellings Rudkaska, Rudraschka, Rudrashka or Rudsaska found in retail or wholesale are therefore incorrect.
Hello! My name is Marco Schreier and I am the founder of the Mineralienhandlung GmbH of the same name. Creativity and stones have been a topic for me since I was a child, and they first shaped my free time and then my entire professional life.
As a child, this began playfully with collecting and crafting with stones I had found myself and with the first minerals that my grandfather brought me from the Alps. Later, a fascination for processing, sawing, grinding, designing and artistic work with gemstones emerged. With our Chili Creative ® brand, we managed to build up a range developed by experts from our wholesale business and our production sites in Asia.
Today, numerous professional jewelry designers, goldsmiths, jewelry makers, jewelers and creative people from the online world such as Etsy and Pinterest providers use the components of Chili Creative® in their projects. With our tools, stone components, bead strands, pearls and silver parts as well as high-quality stringing materials, you can create creative jewelry projects that are highly profitable for resale.
