The 17 Mukhi Rudraksha is mainly available in two varieties, Nepal and the Java Indonesian variety. They are one of the most powerful, popular and authentic varieties of Rudraksha beads. The Nepal beads are heavier, bigger, and developed with thorny projection and deeply etched Mukhi lines and Java beads are comparatively smaller, lighter in weight with visible Mukhi lines. Due to the surface area, the Nepali Rudraksha beads have high healing frequency thus show results faster, whereas Java beads tend to take slightly longer time than the Nepali beads to show results. But when it comes to long term 17 Mukhi Rudraksha benefits, both Nepal and Java beads exhibit almost the same benefits. Being lesser in price and smaller in size, most of the clients opt for Java variety because they can be made in beautiful jewelry designs, sample images of the beads are below:
