Historical and Material Significance

Authentic twelve eye dzi beads are crafted from high-quality natural agate, with some dating back 500 to 800 years. Antique versions, estimated to be 100 to 200 years old, exhibit natural weathering marks, adding to their authenticity and value.

For those looking to harness the power of the twelve eye dzi bead, it remains a symbol of wisdom, success, and divine protection. Whether worn for its mystical properties or admired for its historical significance, this bead continues to captivate enthusiasts worldwide.
