About the ruby potta stone bottu mala

A bottu mala is a traditional South Indian long necklace made from a row of round "bottu" discs. In this 5 in 1 Ruby Bottu Mala, each bottu has a circle of ruby-coloured potta stones around a white-stone flower centre. Potta stones are the closely set coloured stones seen in classic South Indian temple jewellery, and they give this bottu mala its rich, traditional finish. The bottus are joined by small ruby and white-stone links with tiny green accents, and the chain ends in a large ruby potta stone pendant with a green centre stone and green bead drops.
