Just what I need to pray.. nothing fancy but made well,they're pretty and have nice smell to them. Nice length and for the price they are perfect.

Good quality product

Nice, good quality with a nice sandalwood smell. I like to wrap it around my wrist or wear as a necklace. Great for chanting 👍

When you use something for prayer, nothing else matters 🙏

These may be holy Basile but I counted 118 on mine not 108. I guess they weren't paying attention when they were stringing the beads. I don't mind because I know how to make these. It just sucks that I have to cut it and re-string it. It does feel nice though. If it was supposed to have 118 beads on it please let me know what mantra's chanted are chanted with that number in mind. Maybe it could be a misunderstanding. But the product name was clear that it was 108 and 1 more bead because of the guru bead.

They're not the most ornate mala beads I've seen, but I wasn't really looking for that. The energy from these tulsi beads is refreshing and I love them!

Pros- has 108 beads and can be used while prayingCons - It does not smell good like the one I brought from India, nor anything like any kind of tulsi. Reminds me of the smell of ‘seemakonna’ tree aka Gliricidia sepium.

The beads are a little on the small side but good and inexpensive for someone just starting out chanting with mala beads.
