Natural Wooden Ebony and Bodhi Seed Yin Yang Mala Necklace for Meditation
Couldn't load pickup availability

This long ebony and bodhi seed mala necklace strings glossy black ebony beads and pale bodhi seed beads into one two-tone strand of 8mm rounds. The two colors meet at a white guru bead with a carved conical base, from which a round yin-yang disc and a short tassel of dark seed beads hang. The full-length strand can be worn at the neck or wrapped several times around the wrist, and the black-and-white palette reads cleanly against neutral clothing.
Cultural Symbolism & Artistic Design
Yin-yang: In Chinese philosophy, the yin-yang figure represents the interdependence of opposites — light and dark, active and receptive — each half carrying a seed of the other. The carved disc at the mala's end states that idea directly, and the split black-and-white bead arrangement echoes it along the whole strand.
Mala format: 108 is regarded as a sacred number in Hindu and Buddhist tradition, and a full mala is traditionally strung with 108 beads to count one round of recitation. This strand follows that long mala format, with a guru bead marking the end and a tassel below.
Bodhi seeds: Bodhi means "awakening" in Buddhist tradition, recalling the tree under which the Buddha awakened; bodhi seeds have long been used as beads for counting recitation. Here they supply the pale half of the strand.

Why You'll Love This Mala
- The high-contrast ebony and pale seed beads make the strand instantly recognizable, whether worn long at the neck or coiled on the wrist.
- Wood and seed beads are light for their size, so a full-length strand stays comfortable during long wear or quiet recitation.
- Natural materials mean every strand differs in grain, tone, and patina — and the seeds gently deepen in color with regular handling.
Care Instructions
Keep the mala away from water, sweat, perfume, and harsh chemicals; take it off before bathing, swimming, or sleep. Wipe the beads with a soft dry cloth after handling, and store it flat or hanging in a dry place so the strand does not kink or scratch the carved guru bead and yin-yang disc.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which beads are ebony and which are bodhi seed?
The deep glossy black beads are ebony, a dense dark wood; the matte cream beads are natural bodhi seed. Both are organic materials, so expect visible variation in grain, tone, and small surface marks along the strand.
Can it genuinely be worn both ways?
Yes. It is a long mala-format strand rather than a fixed-size necklace, so it hangs at the neck when worn open and can be wrapped several turns around the wrist. The elastic-free cord keeps both options simple.
Is the yin-yang charm part of the counting beads?
No. Counting runs on the 8mm bead strand; the carved yin-yang disc and the dark tassel beads hang below the white guru bead, which marks the end of the loop. The disc is carved in pale and brown marbled tones.
Will the pale seeds stain or darken over time?
With regular wear, natural seeds typically warm and darken slightly as they absorb oils from the skin — a normal patina for seed malas. Keeping the strand dry and clean slows the change if you prefer the paler look.
