This Tendai-shu Hon-Shiki bead for men is made of striped ebony, a wood with a beautiful grain, and accented with torameshi, a stone with a unique grain.
By removing the luster from the ebony, the original texture of the wood is preserved, and the more you use it, the more it will fit comfortably in your hand and become a deep, textured color. The contrasting colors of the ebony and the chic tiger's-eye stone make an excellent combination and create a calm impression.
The tassel is made of beautiful and supple Kyoto-made pure silk Hana-Bontenbou, which is reminiscent of lotus flowers. The tassel comes with a Kyoto Bead Manufacturing Wholesalers Association tag, which only traditional "Kyo-enshu" beads are allowed to wear. It is a gem tailored by the master craftsman of Kyoto.
