  • Real precious leaves: gold, silver, or copper, inserted inside.
  • Brass mantra: protected and integrated into the bracelet.
  • Hermetic closure: designed to protect the bracelet when in contact with water.

👉 Result: a real Buddhist bracelet can accompany you every day, even in an active life.
