Hand-Strung Panchmukhi Sutra — Small Silver Bead Rakhi

Five rudraksha, four silver beads, strung small enough for a child's wrist. An old blessing, scaled down.

Five panchmukhi rudraksha beads alternate with four small 92.5 silver beads, hand-strung on soft cotton moli — a sutra rakhi sized deliberately for a child's wrist rather than an adult's. The rudraksha carry their own old associations with steadiness and calm; the silver adds a small, cool shine between them.

It ties on light and sits low-profile, easy for a young brother to forget he's wearing until he catches sight of it. Simple enough for daily wear well past Raksha Bandhan, it's built to be the kind of rakhi a child keeps long after he's stopped being one.
