A very special necklace made from the seeds of the Rudraksha tree. When Shiva wept out of compassion for human suffering, his tears fell on the earth and Mother Earth changed these tears into seeds, from which the Rudraksha tree grew.

I have combined these dark brown seeds from Northern India with a Buddhist bead. You can choose between the dragon or the fish.

The dragon is a zodiac animal, of course, but in Tibet she is also seen as a divine mount. She is often portrayed as protector, due to her exceptional powers. The silver gilded bead will offer the wearer protection with a force and intensity only a dragon can offer. This beautiful handmade bead has also been decorated with magnificent flower motifs.

The bead with the two goldfish is one of the eight Tibetan lucky signs (the Ashtamangalas). The fish (Matsyayugma) represent fertility and salvation from suffering, which makes them a magnificent combination with Shiva's tears for human suffering.

I am happy to size the chain for you. The example chain is 48 cm, but 44 cm is more suitable for a more delicate neck. The gilded clasp has been finished off with 2 gold beads.
