Create natural, bohemian jewelry with these 10 mm Rudraksha seed beads, also known as Shiva's tears.
Derived from the Rudraksha tree (Elaeocarpus), these natural 10 mm seeds have a seductive organic texture and authentic appearance. Also known as Shiva's tears, they occupy an important place in Hindu culture and have been used for centuries to make jewelry and traditional objects. According to legend, Shiva wept when he discovered the suffering of the world, and his tears gave birth to this singular tree. Once dried, they reveal their characteristic seeds with their recognizable natural relief. Rudraksha beads can have different faces (from 1 to 14), called "mukhis", with the five-sided models being the most widespread.
