Dzi bead’s literal meaning is heaven pearls, in Tibet, it was regarted as gift given by god. Such beads were etched black-and-white or brown-and-white, with symbols comprised of circles, ovals, square, waves stripes, lines and various other symbolic patterns. Sometimes it looks like an eye, so some people think that there a magic power in dzi bead. To the Tibetans, each of these symbols represents a specific meaning. They are precious possession to the Tibetan, with so many fascinating stories of its mystical power attributed to it.
