A strand of weathered yak bone beads. One nine-eye dzi at center. Nothing else. The bone is off-white, carved by hand, with fine grain lines you only notice up close. The dzi is old stock — its nine eyes are worn into the surface.
Yak bone in Tibetan craft is worn for protection. Not the loud kind. The kind that does not need to announce itself. The nine-eye dzi at center is the crown — all energies held in one stone. Bone and stone. No metal. No filler. A shield that does not speak.
