The whole is embellished with Tibetan DZI Pearls (Tibetan sacred agates), protection with two eyes.
The two eyes, in the Tibetan tradition helps to rebalance the harmony between the male principle and the female principle.

Delivered with adjustable cord embellished with a pearl on which the mantra of compassion "om mani padme hum" is engraved and pearls in agate nan hong, this agate holding its intense red color to its high cinnabar content comes from the Yunnan region.

The ghau is a kind of transportable altar in which the image of the chosen deity of the possessor is kept, wrapped in silk garments. The vast majority of Tibetans use the ghau at home and carry it during their travels. They keep it on a real altar at home. During travels, it is hung on the back belt. It serves as a protective symbol during travels and also allows its owner to prove his devotion to his deity.

Jambhala (also known as Dzambhala, Dzambala, Zambala or Jambala) is the God of wealth and appropriately a member of the jewel family (Ratna) whose Dhyani Buddha is Ratnasambhava. In Hindu mythology, it is known as Kubera.Jambhala is also considered an emanation of the Avalokitesvara or Chenrezig, Bodhisattva of Compassion.
He is the protector of all lineages and all sentient beings from any disease and difficulties. Jambhala is a Bodhisattva of material and spiritual wealth as well as many other things, including the granting of financial stability.
"Because in this world there are all kinds of angry and negative emotions or evil spirits, and sometimes they harm you and other sentient beings, Dzambhala must assume such an angry and powerful form to protect us from these harmful spirits and negative karma. In particular, Dzambhala helps us to minimize or decrease all misfortunes and obstacles and helps us to increase all good fortune and happiness. »
