The rose has long been revered as an emblem of the sacred feminine, embodying ancient, sacred feminine wisdom and Gnosis (direct spiritual knowing).  The "Way of the Rose," represents priestess lineages, linked in spiritual traditions of the Divine Feminine; sacred love, mystery and the "Rose Lineage" of priestesses, often associated with ancient temple traditions (like Isis) and the idea of spiritual awakening or resurrection ("rose" from the dead).  
The White Rose is a symbol of the sacred feminine and Mary Magdalene in particular, representing purity, initiation, and the rising of feminine wisdom. The white rose signifying purity and remembrance, contrasts with the red rose (passion/blood), and is central to modern movements reclaiming Magdalene's role as a powerful spiritual figure, embodying wisdom, healing, and sacred sexuality beyond traditional dogma. Magdalene's divine feminine teachings in France, point to spiritual awakening, often linked to sacred sexuality, womb wisdom, and resurrection (rising from ignorance). The rose, especially the white rose, signifies innocence, purity, and love, and the path back to one's true, creative essence, a concept central to modern spiritual practices honouring her legacy. 
In this bespoke piece I have used rather dreamy, rich cream, Mother of Pearl for the main body of the mala, bringing its lovely warm white light, contrasted with the brightness of Gold Glass pearls to echo the design of the main focal point of this bespoke handmade Mala, the exquisitely hand carved rose, in Mother of Pearl edged with gold.  Unique item, an exclusive piece, never to be repeated.   I have interspersed the design with tiny gold lined glass beads and tiny pearlized glass beads, and I Have intersected the main points with the sparkle of Swarovski, smaller carved roses in Mother of Pearl and golden glass pearls.  Simply a match made in heaven.  
Spiritually Mother of Pearl symbolizes purity, transformation, intuition, and the divine feminine, its calming, moon-like glow connects it to emotional balance, protection, and nurturing inner wisdom and spiritual growth, fostering clarity and harmony.  White primarily symbolizes innocence and peace, often representing a connection to the divine, spiritual renewal, and new beginnings. It is frequently used in religious contexts to denote holiness and wisdom.  In various spiritual systems, including Eastern philosophies and chakra work, white is also associated with enlightenment and the highest form of consciousness, particularly the Crown Chakra. The addition of Gold adds another dimension to the piece, also symbolizing purity, as well as divinity, permanence, and prosperity, and is of course associated with the sun, immortality and enlightenment, making this Mala a very high vibe design.  Just stunning!
This necklace will be supplied in a presentation box, with a velvet pouch for safe keeping, guidance notes for its suggested use and a printout of my interpretation. This is my interpretation of this Necklace, however, do remember:
                                                            The Greater Guide is Within
This bespoke handmade 108 bead Affirmation Mala is not only a very desirable thing of great beauty, but also a spiritual tool.  Hold the necklace during prayer, meditation or in contemplation to connect with these deep, hidden aspects of the self.
