Malai Petite Purity : Custom-Coloured Belt
The white lotus stands for a pure heart. It is a reminder of spiritual awakening, and of finding the path toward the light.
Given as a gift, it speaks of inner peace and encourages self-awareness through the symbol of the white lotus.
The Malai Purity Petite is a mirror held up to the white lotus. It carries the full beauty and the full auspicious meaning of our larger pieces, at the most accessible point in the range.
Each one is made by hand by Nicha from natural cotton.

How do you care for a phuang malai?
Caring for your garland is what keeps it beautiful and keeps it looking new for years. A phuang malai is a treasured object in a home or on an altar, so it deserves attention. Here is how to look after yours properly.
- Handle it gently. Always treat the garland with a light touch. Cotton and soft gemstones are delicate and damage easily. Keep handling to a minimum.
- Keep it out of direct sunlight. Direct sun fades cotton. Keep your garland somewhere dry and cool.
- Keep it dry. Damp causes mould and mildew, which damages cotton. Avoid storing the garland anywhere with high humidity.
- Dust it regularly. Dust and dirt settle on cotton and on soft stones and make a piece look dull. Brush it lightly with a soft brush or a cloth to lift dust and cobwebs away.
- If this is something you believe in, you can recharge the stones by holding the garland in your hands and picturing positive energy flowing into you. You can also leave it somewhere it will catch the moonlight overnight.
Cared for properly, your garland becomes a treasured object in your home or on your altar for many years.
