Note :
This is a formal rosary for women of the Jodo sect.
We used Yakusugi, which is rare and considered to be auspicious due to its pun on the Japanese word "yakusugi", the evil(Yaku) has passed(Sugi).
The fine, beautiful grain of Yakusugi is very popular, and this product is popular with customers of all ages. It has a glossy finish, and you can enjoy the changes in texture and color.
The tassels are made of high-quality pure silk Kabonten. It is made by weaving threads using traditional braiding techniques, so it is strong, and the Bonten tassels are beautiful in appearance, reminiscent of lotus flowers.
This is an exquisite product handmade by a skilled Kyoto rosary maker.
・Yakusugi
Yakusugi is a type of cedar that grows naturally in mountainous areas over 500 meters above sea level on Yakushima Island. Currently, cutting down Yakusugi is prohibited, and only stumps, fallen trees, and other "buried wood" can be processed into a rare, high-quality material. As it is said that "Yakusugi = the evil(Yaku) has passed(Sugi)," it is treasured as a talisman for longevity, ward off evil spirits, prosperity, good fortune, and good luck.
