Red sandalwood is a trade name commonly associated with Pterocarpus santalinus. It is not the same botanical material as fragrant Santalum sandalwood, even though the names sound similar. Reddish to darker brown tones and fine grain suit polished rounded beads. Appearance can deepen with handling and exposure, while coatings and lighting also influence the color in photographs.

Choosing your piece

Check the exact wood identification and any available sourcing documentation, particularly where protected species or cross-border trade rules apply. A rich red color alone does not establish species or lawful origin.

Care notes

Avoid water, strong cleaners, sudden humidity changes and prolonged heat. A dry soft cloth is the safest routine care; keep the piece away from products that may stain the wood or cord.

Collection names follow our product descriptions. Composition, dimensions, treatments and any supporting documentation remain specific to each listing.

Before you ask

Questions, answered

Are your pieces really from Tibet?
Origin varies by product and maker. Read the individual description for any stated material and workshop origin; a Tibetan-inspired design does not by itself establish where a piece was made. Contact us if a detail is not listed.
What does ‘consecrated’ mean here?
Consecration refers to a religious blessing practice, not a guaranteed personal outcome. It applies only where stated for the individual product; traditions and temples can vary. We do not apply one monastery claim to every piece.
How long does delivery take?
Allow for any stated sourcing or making time before dispatch, followed by international transit. Handmade and custom pieces can take longer; routes from Tibet, where applicable, may also need extra time. See our shipping policy for current estimates. Standard shipping is $15 below $80 and free at $80 or more.
Can I return a piece?
See our returns policy for the 30-day return window, eligibility and exclusions. Please check the terms for custom or personalized pieces before ordering, and contact us for help with an existing order.
