Workshop includes: 108 rudraksha seeds, wide selection of genuine crystals beads (choose up to 25 for your mala, extra charges apply if you use more than 25 crystals), silk thread for stringing, tassel thread and take-home booklet.

Light snacks and refreshment will be provided complimentary, and a pack of nasi lemak for lunch, but if you have special dietary requirements, please bring your own supply of fuel!

All Moolamalas have been formed on a very special artpiece – the Labyrinth Plate. As a potter, I’ve always enjoyed making what I love, and labyrinths have been a long-time obsession of mine. When I came to make pots at Gaya Ceramic Arts Center, I found the perfect finish for these labyrinth plates – the WOOD FIRE! Finally, these plates felt DONE.

This is what the plate looked like before firing, freshly formed in my home studio…

Arranging stones and seeds on a labyrinth place before stringing together… this allows me to visualise how the finished mala will look like, and lays out the ‘path’ I will follow when knotting the mala.

These plates have become such an essential tool in my mala-making practice… and it is a joy to find a practical use for something which I had thought was ‘just’ a sculptural piece!

If you would like to own your own labyrinth plate, contact me and I will show you what labyrinths are in stock at the moment, along with a price quote.
