GEMSTONE MEANINGS
AFRICAN TURQUOISE - This captivating stone, often called the "Stone of Evolution," is actually a form of jasper, cherished for its vibrant blue-green hues and natural veining. It supports personal growth, emotional balance, and intuitive clarity. Linked to the Throat and Third Eye chakras, it encourages authentic communication and spiritual insight. Grounding in energy, it also inspires creative manifestation and offers a sense of protection as you embrace new beginnings
MEDITATION BUDDHA - The Meditation Buddha is a powerful symbol of inner peace, mindfulness, and spiritual awakening. With its serene presence, it serves as a daily reminder to pause, breathe, and reconnect with balance and harmony. Many keep a Buddha symbol close as an inspiration for meditation, personal growth, or simply as a calming presence in their environment. The Meditation Buddha carries timeless meaning and spiritual depth
SANDALWOOD - Sandalwood is cherished for its soothing fragrance and long history in spiritual traditions. Known for its calming and grounding qualities, Sandalwood is often used to support mindfulness, meditation, and inner peace. Its warm, organic beauty makes it a meaningful material for a Mala to wear or carry for balance and serenity

NOTE
The Mala shown in the photos has already been chosen, but yours will be handcrafted with the same design, intention, and natural gemstone energies. Because each stone carries its own unique colors and markings, every Mala becomes a one-of-a-kind True Nature Jewelry creation—beautiful in its own natural expression.
If something doesn’t resonate when your piece arrives, I gladly offer returns and exchanges. Simply reach out to me through Etsy and I will reply promptly with next steps. I carefully choose each bead so that your Mala feels aligned, balanced, and spiritually supportive.
“Be the change you wish to see in the world.” — Mahatma Gandhi
I personally design each Mala, carefully planning and laying out the bead design on a special bead board meant for 108 bead Mala’s. Every bead is hand-knotted by me for flexibility and beauty. I also create the tassels myself using Sari silk fabric, silk thread, cotton or other natural fibers. I can attach a pendant to any Mala if you choose not to have a tassel
I’m happy to customize any item in my shop. I also offer a dedicated Custom Mala listing. If you’d like to make small changes to a Mala already in my shop, simply send me a message or leave your request in the customization box at checkout. Together, we can create a Mala that feels truly yours.
Because custom and personalized orders are created just for you, they are non-refundable. That said, if I’ve made a mistake or if something isn’t right due to workmanship, I will happily correct it or provide a refund.
My Malas are available in two sizes: 8mm and 6mm. If you like a lighter or more petite style, the 6mm is a great choice. Each listing shows the Mala on a mannequin and a model so you can get a clear idea of how it looks. If you need guidance, just send me a note—I’m happy to help.
With every Mala you purchase, I include a care guide that explains how to use your Mala and how to properly store and care for your beads.
I offer gift wrapping for all purchases. Every Mala and bracelet comes packaged in a burlap Mala bag, perfect for gift giving.
While I don’t currently offer wholesale, I’m glad to extend a discount for bulk or large-quantity orders. Message me anytime to chat about options.
The regular tassel length is about 4", and I’m happy to customize it for you. Whether you prefer it shorter, longer, fuller, or more delicate—and even if you’d like a different wrap cord color—just let me know. You can leave your request in the customization box or message me anytime.
Most orders are processed in 3–5 days, and I usually ship sooner when I’m able. During holidays or especially busy times, processing may increase slightly. If you’re in a hurry, I offer Priority and Express shipping, and you can always message me to see if I can make your order a bit faster for a special occasion. I’m happy to help when I can.
