Temple Series Mala

Description

After a recent trip to Bali I was inspired to create this series to share with you, The meru bead in the mala contains sand from the 17th century temple of Pura Batu Ngaus located in Bali, Indonesia. The Balinese come to this temple to seek abundance, healing, medicine and fertility blessings from the priest, leaving offerings through a blowhole in the rock that connects to the ocean via an underwater cave.  Using a century’s old technique, I have encased volcanic black sand from the temple within molten glass.

Use the mala in your meditation ritual, or simply wear it around your neck and feel the grounding properties.
