Soka Gakkai Buddhist Prayer Beads, Solid Boxwood with Natural Cotton Tassels, SGI, Unisex

These prayer beads are exclusively for the Soka Gakkai. They offer the texture of natural wood and are designed for long-lasting use. Boxwood is strong and dense, making it ideal for crafting combs, seals, shogi pieces, and carvings. Its low warping also led to its use in rulers and surveying tools. A strong and extremely hard wood, sometimes written in kanji as "boxwood," its distinctive yellow surface, as its name suggests, suggests. The wood's surface is extremely fine-grained, making it extremely pleasant to the touch even without painting. The more you use it, the more lustrous and refined it becomes. Frequent use of combs and other items will give it a weight and dignity not found in new boxes.
