Mala Restring Service

When a mala breaks it is a positive expression of the law of cause and effect, creating good karma. Let us restring your mala beads for you. We will restring your mala with loving care in your preferred style.

Restring Mala Options

Select the type of restring you would like from the drop-down menu. We offer wired and hand-knotted services. The Before & After image featured is a hand-knotted mala.

We no longer accept Pearls and Rudraksha Seed, this decision is attributed to the incompatibility of the cords we use and the very tiny bead hole size. 

Jewelry Wire Mala Restring

We use professional jewelry wire to string your mala, the best material on the market. It is capable of withstanding 40 pounds of pressure. It features a very soft drape (meaning it coils easily and fluidly) it is kink resistant and highly durable. The beads are strung with just the right amount of “give” for counting mantra. 

Hand-Knotted Mala Restring

We will restring your mala with knots between each bead using a double-string cord of professional quality.  The tassel chart displays cord and tassel color options.

Tassel Options, Pendants, Snake Knots

Our restring service includes new cotton or silk tassel of your choice, select from the color chart. The tassel length will be approximately 2 to 3 inches.

If your mala has a special pendant, snake knot, or something other than a tassel please select No Tassel from the options and provide any details in the Order Notes section at checkout. 

Snake-knot is optional instead of a tassel, current color options are red or black. Please note this is a stationary snake-knot and is not adjustable.

Replace Broken or Missing Beads

We are happy to replace broken or missing beads if we have them in stock. Please contact us with the quantity, size, and type of beads you are missing to verify availability before purchasing the service. 

Send Your Mala For Repair

Once you have purchased the service you will receive an e-mail (please allow up to 24 hours Monday through Friday) with any initial questions we may have and mailing instructions. Note: If we do not have an order for your repair the package will be returned to sender, please purchase the service before shipping.

Processing Time

The turnaround time for restring service is approximately 3 to 5 business days from the date we receive your package. We will ship your mala back to you via USPS with shipment tracking and notify you of the shipment.

Beloved mala beautifully restrung

I recently mailed a treasured mala that was a gift from my favorite niece to Heather for restringing (broken original string and loose beads, made by another artisan). Heather perfectly reordered the original loose beads and restrung the entire mala with her knotting technique -- I received the completed repair and restoration result a couple of days ago, and my mala is just fabulously and "poetically" and beautifully repaired and renovated now. I couldn't be more pleased and at peace!

Beautiful work

Heather did such a beautiful job on the restringing of my mala. I lost several of the wooden beads and so she added quartz it looks fantastic. I can tell that is was made with love and feel very grateful for having found her. I would highly recommend. I am so happy with my purchase.

Wonderful work and care - thank you!

The restrung mala looks wonderful. It is very dear to me, and somehow Heather improved on it. I am grateful for the time she took chatting with me about the details, and the care she took in re-stringing it and then mailing it with care. I look forward to many meditation sessions with it for years to come. Thank you!

Very happy repeat customer

Just received my package with three items to be restrung - a 108 bead mala and 2 wrist malas. They all look beautiful! Thank you so much for the care and precision that you put into your work. I also love the new wrist mala I purchased for my niece, just as stunning as the ones I previously bought from you.

Mala Restring Magic

My mala is very special to me. It has brought me enormous comfort over many years. Heather took great care in restringing it, replacing its tassel and refreshing its beads with lightly-scented sandalwood oil. A mistake in my return address was quickly corrected, turnaround was quick, and I received comforting correspondence regarding its return. Many thanks to Heather and Golden Lotus Mala.

Heather is nothing short of amazing. She gave my old mala new life, and not only that, it was all done and sent back to me quicker than any services within my own country! So pleased with my decision to use Heather's services and my next mala will be sent sometime soon! 10/10
