Description

A juzu (Japanese Buddhist prayer beads) is one of the most familiar Buddhist items in Japan. Traditionally, a full formal juzu is made with 108 beads, symbolizing the 108 worldly desires (bonnō). Each bead is believed to hold spiritual meaning, with the largest central bead representing the Buddha. While formal juzu are used in specific traditions, many people today use a simplified “Ryaku-shiki Nenju” — a single-loop style that can be used regardless of Buddhist sect. This makes it suitable for everyday use and for formal occasions such as memorial services. ✦ Item Overview This is a men’s one-hand prayer beads set made from carefully selected Hinoki (Japanese Cypress) — part of the “Meiboku (fine Japanese wood)” series. Hinoki is highly valued in Japan for its beautiful grain and refreshing natural fragrance, and is traditionally used for premium architecture such as temples and bath tubs. Over time, the beads develop a richer character and become comfortable in the hand. Each juzu is made by skilled Japanese craftsmen, with care and intention. Because it is handmade, production may take time after ordering. ✦ Features Men’s simplified juzu (single loop / sect-neutral) Premium Hinoki wood beads with natural scent Silk tassel (Shoken) in traditional Kyoto brown Comes with Paulownia wood box Includes a Tsumugi fabric juzu pouch (for storage & carrying) Suitable for funerals, memorial services, grave visits, Obon, Higan, and more Also meaningful as a protective amulet / gift ✦ Specifications Material: Hinoki (Japanese Cypress) Beads: Main beads: approx. 12mm (22 beads) Center bead: approx. 16–17mm Spacer beads: approx. 10mm Tassel: Material: Silk Color: Kyoto brown Style: Head tassel (Kashira-fusa) 🍬 Special Gift – Japanese Konpeito Candy With every Omamori, we include a small packet of Konpeito (金平糖) – a traditional Japanese sugar candy.
