Nepali jewelry and Buddhism

Very closely related to Buddhism, Nepali jewels are often assimilated to Tibetan jewels. It is true that many Tibetans in exile, have established themselves in the land of smiles. And Tibet rhymes with Buddhism! Malas and Zen bracelets, also known as lucky bracelets or Tibetan bracelets, are very common. Most Nepali people wear a mala necklace or a mala bracelet.

Nepali jewels in silver, brass and semi-precious stones: these Nepali jewels are mainly made by the Newar, an ethnic group living in Kathmandu and its surroundings. The Newar have been recognized artisans for centuries and their history is closely linked to Tibet. They have been the jewelry artisans for Tibetan monasteries, many generations.

Manufacture of Nepali jewels Omyoki

Our Nepalese jewelry is made by Mahesh. This craftsman lives in the suburbs of Kathmandu, in the family house, with his parents, his wife and his 2 children. He has been making malas and pearl bracelets for 14 years! 14 years of threading pearls, with patience, gentleness and peace of mind. Mahesh is very religious, when he puts on beads he seems to be in active meditation. There emanates from this person an absolute calm, a peaceful force. Well known in his neighborhood, it is not uncommon to see one or two friends from the neighborhood come to chat and drink tea in his shop.
