ST-10 | Red Agate Guru Bead - 10.6 mm
Bring a red agate detail to your next mala arrangement. Use this guru bead as a finishing focal element when creating or refreshing a personal piece.
Use the red agate as the starting point for your color arrangement. Try it alongside beads you already own, then compare a simple repeating sequence with a layout that gives the guru bead more visual space at the finishing point.
Design & Project Ideas
A guru bead forms a focal finishing point in a mala arrangement. When planning your project, consider the route of the cord through the three-hole design as well as the position of any knots and other finishing components.

Planning Your Beadwork
Use the listed 1.2 mm hole measurement as a starting point when selecting cord. Allow room for the threading route and any repeated passes; the cord may need to be thinner than the stated opening. Test the fit gently before assembling the whole piece.
Lay out your design before stringing and check the finished length, spacing, and knot positions. These are project ideas; choose the other beads and findings to suit your own construction.
Care
Handle gently while assembling. Wipe with a soft, dry cloth after use, avoid abrasive cleaners, and store separately from tools and harder components that could mark the surface.
