Five Mukhi Kantha with Collector Size Rudraksha Beads

What is a Five Mukhi Kantha?

A Five Mukhi Kantha is a traditional necklace made from Five Mukhi Rudraksha beads. The word Kantha is commonly used for a Rudraksha necklace made with larger beads and worn close to the body.

The Five Mukhi Rudraksha is traditionally associated with Lord Shiva and is valued for its connection with peace, spiritual discipline, wisdom and meditation. When larger collector-size beads are used, the Mala becomes an especially distinctive addition to a Rudraksha collection.

Collector Size Five Mukhi Rudraksha

The defining feature of this Mala is the use of collector-size Five Mukhi Rudraksha beads. These larger beads are sought after by Rudraksha collectors because of their size, natural appearance and rarity compared with ordinary smaller beads.

Collector-size Rudraksha can be appreciated both as a spiritual article and as part of a personal Rudraksha collection. Their larger form also makes the natural mukhi lines and texture particularly prominent.
