The Tibet Fund, established over 30 years ago under the auspices of His Holiness the Dalai Lama as the primary funding organization for the Tibetans living in exile, joins forces with Jewelry Designer, Konstantina Mahlia, to create the "Karma Mala", a hand-made bracelet mala that symbolizes peace and harmony, to support education programs for the Tibetan Community.  

Under the creative direction of Konstantina Mahlia, this bracelet mala has been hand made by Tibetan artisans, living in Santa Fe, New Mexico. 

Ten percent of all proceeds from the sale of the special edition KARMA bracelet, a 21-bead mala made of pocked solid wooden beads and silver rondelles on turquoise with red Tibetan silk knotting, will go directly to The Tibet Fund and its education programs, creating new learning and employment opportunities for the Tibetan community. 

Your generous purchase will enable the Tibetan community to become more self-sufficient and will ultimately lead to the long-term sustainability of the Tibetan people, their identity, and culture. 

"I created the KARMA Bracelet as part of my 'Silk Road' Collection, beautiful handmade jewels that symbolize the story of the Tibetan Artisans and the trade route opened by Alexander the Great thousands of years ago," said designer Konstantina Mahlia.  "It is my hope that the KARMA bracelet will remind all those who wear it, that the Tibetans are a people under threat, and it is our humanitarian responsibility to unite and help protect them from obsoletion."

Available as part of The Tibet Fund's "In Service to Others" campaign while supply lasts. There are only 500 in this first edition series.
