i have already been to two folliamala workshops. each time it was a great experience: the competent introduction, the attentive supervision, the large selection of stones and not to forget the delicious food - everything was wonderfully harmonious. and at the end you wear a beautiful, self-made mala necklace. i am already looking forward to the third time!

As always, a great workshop. Great team, expert advice, lots of choice and - all in all - an interesting, entertaining day.
Thank you very much also for the marvellous hospitality. The lentil soup à la Vittoria was a delight. I'm looking forward to the next course with you.
See you soon, Daniela

I can highly recommend the Folliamala Mala workshop. Friendly workshop leaders, good and clear instructions, versatile material, easier than expected and including culinary pampering. I don't regret taking part for a moment and can recommend the workshop to anyone who loves stones/malas and would like to make a mala themselves. .
Simply great workshop

It's been a year, but I have such fond memories of the workshop with Vittoria, Simone and Claudia and the other participants. It was so beautiful, relaxing, inspiring and instructive and I never thought beforehand that I would go home with my favourite mala necklace. I am thrilled and recommend the workshop and all the “follis” created with love. Thank you for everything and keep up the good work.
Very nice workshop

Thank you for the inspiring afternoon

I signed up for the workshop without knowing you and my expectations were exceeded. I got to know new material. You provide a large selection of material, clear instructions for the painting chain, inputs and help with the production. Thank you and who knows ... gladly again.
Highly recommended 😊

Time flew by - entertaining and informative

Edith
The course took place in a small, cosy setting and was interesting and informative. Large selection of beautiful accessories, such as stone beads, clasps etc. Highly recommended if you want to create something new in an afternoon. Crisp aperitif, for which you almost didn't want to „sacrifice“ any more time in the euphoria 😉 Perhaps I'll say again another time.
Thank you

Workshop as a team event
★★★★★
Sina
Even the organisation for my team event was uncomplicated and very friendly. Our bracelet workshop was great and we all enjoyed being creative under the good guidance of Claudia and Simone. We created a lovely memento of our team day. I also liked the fact that we had plenty of time to chat and exchange ideas during the workshop, which was really good for us as a team. I can highly recommend a workshop at Folliamala - we had a lot of fun!

Susana
I like to be creative. Mainly at home with crochet hooks or knitting needles. To get away from my four walls and everyday life, I attended the fantastic mala workshop. Even though the knotting was really tricky, I enjoyed the afternoon and knotted a beautiful necklace. The instructors were very helpful and guided us professionally through the afternoon. Thank you and I would love to do it again.
Inspiring, fun workshop

Ich wollte schon immer einen solchen Workshop machen, da Mala-Ketten und ihre Bedeutung mich faszinieren. Es war ein toller, lustiger, gelungener Nachmittag. Die Auswahl an „Beads“ ist gross. Herzallerliebste, geduldige und hilfsbereite Leiterinnen. Und das Endprodukt woooow! Einfach nur zu empfehlen.
Ein wunderschönes Erlebnis

Workshop war sehr schön, gute nette Betreuung durch den Kurs! mit Simone und Vittoria. Herzlichen Dank! Was ich zu bemängeln habe, es hatte nicht genug Steine in der Farbe die ich haben wollte für meine Kette, habe dann andere Farbe gewählt, ist aber auch sehr schön geworden! Dann noch zu Guru Perle musste lange suchen, habe dann eine schöne gefunden!

Our latest mala necklaces & bracelets

Energy and effect

The mala chain

A bead slips gently through the fingers and makes room for a new bead. Cold at first, it then warms up with energy and the power of the mantra that announces itself with each knot.

A traditional mala necklace has 108 beads, a guru bead and a pendant. Our mala chains have a thousand faces, a thousand colours, but their strength lies in the mantras that we repeat knot by knot, bead by bead.
