"Karma" Zen stone/Leather Wrapped Rock/Handwrapped rock/braided stone zen decor

"Karma" Zen stone. Privacy Stone. Meditation rock. Hand wrapped granite river rock with suede leather. Using the traditional rock wrapping and knotting technique, I wrapped this Canadian granite river rock with 2 pieces of contrasting colour suede leather cords. The cords are tightly braided without any glue. The round knot denotes what goes around comes around, and symbolizes "karma". Though time consuming and rough on the fingers, I have found rock wrapping to be calming and meditative. This is inspired by the Japanese wrapped rock which can be found in shrines or in front of a garden. It is a stone or rock tied with a black rope and it means "hold your step" or a polite way of saying "do not enter". So I call it a "privacy stone" where you can place it in a room where you want to preserve your own space, your privacy, your little haven. You can use it as a meditation stone, or as a paper weight. Measurement: approximately 2.5 inches long, 2.5 inches wide, 1.5 inches in height Due to differences in screen settings, colors may differ. Also, the piece will look slightly different in colour under different lighting.
