Hand-Carved Devil Ojime Bead

These hand-carved boxwood Diablo beads, are inspired by antique Japanese ojime - the sliding bead on the cord of the Inro Box. The devil is represented by an oni mask - based in a demon spirit world. These spirits are known for punishing the unjust and evil.

Each diablo bead is hand-carved by a contemporary Chinese Master-Carver, who takes up to four hours to make just one! The back of each bead is signed by the artisan as well.
