Just as it can happen with a pearl chain bought from the jeweller, your mala can break (however, you don't have pearls all over the place because of the knots between each pearl).

But traditionally this is only a good sign. Some sides that it means that your jewelry has fulfilled its purpose - supported your intention that has now manifested itself.

This is of course a possibility, but my own experience is that a mala breaks because it is well used and because the stones - which are of a certain hardness - that sit on it, eventually wear down the string. Just like all other pearl necklaces.

Then, should your Mantra jewelery break because you either use it a lot or are unlucky enough to get stuck and break it, you can of course have it repaired - or rather, completely re-tied.

Because you cannot repair a mala or a mantra bracelet. Each pearl must be cut off and put on a new string and tied with new knots and tassel. So it's like getting a brand new mantra mala.

Rock and string
The stones I work with are all of a certain roughness and will eventually wear down the string on which they are pulled up. The polyester cord that I use is strong and significantly more robust than, for example, silk cord or cotton, but in contrast to, for example, freshwater pearls, the hard stone pearls will wear down even the strongest cord over time - especially if you wear your jewelry every day.

Therefore, remember to take good care of your mala. Take it off when you sleep, don't take it in the shower or in the water at the beach and take it off when you do, for example, hard exercise where you sweat a lot. The stones can withstand water well, but the string does not benefit from it.

And don't wrap it around your wrist. It is not a bracelet and the cord wears out a lot when you wrap it around your wrist.
