8 Mukhi
₹ 11,000
Chosen for VIZHEE's Pendants collection, this piece shows 8 mukhi, the form tradition gives to Ganesha under Rahu. This one carries the form of Shiva, kept as a fixed point to return to through the day. In the hand, it is styled to be worn by men. Kept on through the day, it works less as ornament and more as a steady point of focus — the cosmos held close, the earth still underfoot. Some wear it on its own; others add it to a piece they already have — either way, it's built to be lived in. Store it flat and away from other hard jewelry so it does not pick up scratches while not in use.

Read by hand: we count the 8 mukhi (faces) on the bead ourselves — there is no external document behind that reading.
The Padma Purana account (via Kanchi Kamakoti Peetham) assigns the eight-faced bead to Ganesha, ruled by Rahu, with the mantra rendered as Om Ganeshaya Namah; other reference charts give the mantra as Om Hum Namah. The Ganesha–Rahu pairing itself is consistent across sources. Shiva is one of the principal deities of Hinduism. Described here as tradition, not as a guaranteed effect.
Seed of the Elaeocarpus ganitrus tree, worn as a prayer bead across Hindu and Buddhist tradition. Natural beads vary in colour and grain and may deepen with wear — a mark of a real bead, not a fault.
The pendant form's conceptual template is old: medieval reliquary pendants were made to hold fragments of saints' relics, establishing the idea of a precious, meaningful object worn close to the body at chest level. By the 16th century, portrait miniatures migrated into jewelry as secular pendant lockets, and by the Victorian era pendants and lockets had become a primary vehicle for sentiment, memory, and mourning in the West. Open to any devotee regardless of age or gender; choice of deity or symbol is generally personal (Ishta Devata) rather than restricted by tradition.
Keep away from water, perfume and harsh chemicals. Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth and store flat, away from direct sunlight. Rudraksha and other natural beads may deepen in tone with wear — this is expected, and part of how a piece becomes yours.
