Rudraksha bead quality

[Guest guest]

Namaskar to All,

 

 

 

I put together a draft with criteria points for evaluation of

collector-quality variety of genuine Rudraksha beads;

 

 

 

* Max Size

* Max spherical shape

* Max weight

* Natural hole through bead

* Bright, attractive even color

* Lustre (shine)

* Evenly size mukhi facets all around bead

* Mukhi facets with max thorns (why are smooth beads (chikna )

popular?)

* Deep seated mukhi lines with unbroken mukhi line walls

* Emit positive vibrations

 

Anything else? [:-?]

 

 

 

Many thanks,

Namaste Ole,

 

How will you know if it is a natural hole? Also I am not sure why you feel some of these other criteria are even important, like even size mukhi facets, spherical shape, etc.

 

Please explain why, if you don't mind.

 

Thanks,

 

Surya
