Soxy Hau Na Mo (Hua Namo) Necklace
BE2500 (1957) • Luang Phor Khai (Phor Than Klai) • Wat Suan Khan, Nakhon Si Thammarat • Na Mo Pu Ta Ya mantra lineage (Southern Khao Or tradition)
Collector Lens
The Soxy Hau Na Mo—often called Hua Namo—belongs to a very specific southern genre: mantra-linked bead chains empowered around the well-known Na Mo Pu Ta Ya formula. Collectors prize these not for ornament alone, but for the idea of constant mantra contact—a wearable reminder of refuge, restraint, and protective field. In older batches, what matters most is the clarity of stamping, hand-linked construction, and the honest age on the surface.

Historical Context
Issued in BE2500, this necklace reflects the southern Thai preference for practical, wearable protection—especially items tied to mantra recitation and daily discipline. The piece is associated with temple merit-making and community support, with distribution often aligned to major religious seasons such as Kathina and other festival cycles. In collector terms, BE2500 sits in the “older stamp-era” feel: more handwork, less factory uniformity.
Materials & Craftsmanship
- Nur Khalai Na — a silver-plated metal alloy (classic “khalai” surface tone).
- Beads carry the sacred “Na” character, reflecting the Na Mo Pu Ta Ya formula.
- Construction is typically hand-linked, with small variations that collectors accept as authentic “period character”.
- Common wearable length is often seen around 18–22 inches (varies by owner adjustment).
Consecration & Spiritual Empowerment (Belief Framing)
Traditional accounts describe empowerment through mantra recitation—especially the Na Mo Pu Ta Ya cycle—along with standard Buddhist chanting and southern ritual framing. Collectors generally interpret the necklace’s “power” through two lenses: (1) the lineage of the maker and temple, and (2) the continuous contact principle—wearing the mantra close to the body as a daily anchor for mindfulness and protective intent.
Traditional Attributes (Belief Framing)
- Protection (Klaew Klaad): guarding against danger, mishaps, and negative influences.
- Metta: gentler aura, improved relationships, and social harmony.
- Maha Lap / opportunity flow: often described as attracting support, benefactors, and helpful people.
- Mindfulness support: “mantra presence” as a steady reminder to keep a clear mind.
Rarity & Collectibility Notes
Earlier-period Hua Namo bead chains are considered harder to find in clean, unbroken condition. Collectors often look for: clear stamping depth, aged patina consistent with silver-plating, and hand-linked integrity. Later reproductions tend to appear more uniform and “too new” in surface tone.
