Moonstone Mala Bracelet – Tree of Life

Description

Moonstone mala bracelets occupy a particular space in the tradition of intentional adornment. This one arrives cool against the wrist, the stones carrying the soft, floating inner light that gemologists call adularescence: a glow that shifts with every angle of view.

Moonstone is a variety of feldspar found primarily in Sri Lanka, India, and Madagascar. The finest stones show a floating inner light produced by the diffraction of light between alternating mineral layers within the crystal structure. In Indian jewelry tradition, moonstone has been associated with the lunar calendar for centuries, worn to mark transitions. The Tree of Life charm draws from a symbol shared across Persian, Celtic, and Indian artistic traditions: the rooted form oriented toward light.

The bracelet is strung on elastic cord with approximately 18 to 20 moonstone beads, each 8 mm in diameter. The stones are smooth-polished rounds, semi-translucent, with natural variation in the depth of adularescence from bead to bead. No two bracelets are identical. The Tree of Life charm is cast in silver-tone alloy with branch and root detailing on both faces. The bracelet fits most adult wrists at approximately 17 to 19 cm circumference. No clasp is required.
