Tiger Eye Stone Mala — Hand-Strung Prayer Beads
Description
Tiger Eye Stone Mala — Hand-Strung Prayer Beads
A hand-strung prayer mala made from polished tiger eye stone beads in warm brown-gold tones, finished with a golden tassel.
Why we selected it
Personally selected in Varanasi for the natural movement of light across the polished tiger eye and the warm, earthy colour of the finished strand.
Facts
- Material: Polished tiger eye stone beads
- Finish: Brown-gold tones with golden tassel

How to use / wear
Suitable for meditation, japa, mantra practice, prayer, or wearing as a gemstone mala. Traditional full-length malas commonly use approximately 108 prayer beads; individual handmade strands may vary slightly.
Origin & sourcing
Personally selected and purchased in Varanasi, India. The tiger eye stone itself may originate outside Varanasi; the sourcing statement refers to the finished mala and where it was selected and purchased.
Care
Keep the mala dry, handle it gently, and store it where the polished stone beads, cord, and tassel will not be crushed or tangled. See Namaste Nook’s mala-care guide for more detailed care.
