Black Coconut Shell Beads

Legend tells of an old monk who lived alone on a South Sea island for thirty years, accompanied only by a coconut shell bead bracelet. Day after day, he quietly turned the beads, letting the deep black coconut shell absorb his worries like the calm of night. One day, a traveler arrived, offering him a single turquoise stone—vivid, serene, and full of warmth. The monk placed it into the bracelet, and from then on, a glimmer of green-blue shimmered among the dark beads. It was said the bracelet now held balance—the strength of the body and the stillness of the heart.

This piece continues that story: crafted from dense, aged black coconut shell—known for its durability and rich, evolving shine—it is paired with a single natural turquoise bead, symbolizing inner peace, clarity, and spiritual protection. More than just a bracelet, it is a reminder to stay grounded in chaos, to find stillness within movement. Ideal for those who value meaning, tradition, and mindful living—this bracelet is both a cultural treasure and a personal talisman.
