BODHICITTA

Bodhicitta bead sizes vary, but are typically categorized as small (7-8mm), medium (9-12mm), and large (13mm+). Smaller beads are rare and more expensive, while medium-sized beads are common for practice, and larger beads are less valuable but still usable for meditation or display. The size is an important factor in determining the bead's price, with smaller beads generally commanding higher prices.

Factors Influencing Price and Value: 

 
  • Size: Generally, smaller beads are more expensive.
