"Decision Maker" is a set of Komboloi worry beads / comfort beads that I designed for use along the same lines as traditional Greek worry beads: to use when tense or waiting, or when feeling stressed or fidgety. The beads are movable along the cord and they can be twirled, counted, or you can just run your fingers over them. They are easy to carry in a pocket or pouch, and can help you calm and focus any time.
The beads I chose for this set of komboloi were picked for both their metaphysical properties lore and their beauty. The stones are beads of natural red rutilated quartz, smoky quartz, and .925 sterling silver, strung on brown Irish waxed linen. This komboloi is approximately 7.5 ".
In alignment with the properties of the stone, I craft this set of beads with the prayer and intent that the wearer be blessed with easy decision making.

Rutilated quartz is said to assist with tissue regeneration, assimilation
of nutrition, and slow the advancement of aging. It is also said to boost the immune system and treat respiratory illness. Rutiliated quartz is also a mystical crystal "diagnostic tool" which can help discover the true cause of an ailment. Rutilated quartz is also purported to enhance mental and physical stability, self-reliance, and meditation on feminine ideas. It is reputed by intuitives and folklore to diminish fears, depression and issues with decision-making. Rutilated quartz is associated with the solar plexus chakra. See extended
