Having achieved such awareness, a being has achieved total liberation from suffering, better known as Nirvana. Quantity: 2 beads. Measurements: 13.5mm Long, 10mm Wide, 2mm Hole. TierraCast Pewter is made in the USA, using Lead Free Pewter that exceeds both the CPSC standard and the new California law regulating children's jewelry content.
