Dating back to the Tubo Dynasty, the ancestors of Tibet wove their reverence for nature and prayers for peace and prosperity into the crisscrossing threads of rope. This millennia-old craft of hand-braiding once served as a vital vessel for highland tribes to invoke blessings and auspiciousness. Using natural cotton and hemp, artisans mastered ancient techniques passed down through oral tradition and heartfelt instruction, weaving the essence of the snowy realm into each lift and press of the braiding tools.
Each braided cord holds unique Tibetan auspicious codes: the eight-strand braid signifies wealth from all directions, the vajra knot wards off evil spirits, and the flat knot carries peace and joy. The resilient strands endure the test of time without breaking, mirroring the Tibetan people’s steadfast faith. Their natural hues deepen with age, harmonizing perfectly with the warmth of Tibetan beads and the grace of pendants.
Adorned with cherished Tibetan beads or pendants, these strands transcend mere accessories—they carry millennia of Tibetan blessings close to the heart. The cord binds fortune, the beads carry auspiciousness, allowing this timeless craftsmanship to safeguard every moment of daily life with smoothness and well-being.
