Black Agate Prayer Beads (19+5)

These prayer beads are made of 8x12mm unknotted black agate beads that are a twisted rice shape. They are in a 19+5 configuration with a sterling main bead, and a Turkish scourge mesh tassel at the end of the tail. The Turkish scourge filigree consists of hand woven hairline thick pure silver wires assembled without soldering. The chain that makes thebody of the tassel is woven with three loops, an extremely rare technique passed down for generations. All loops are made of wires composed of extremely tiny invisible spirals. The whole scourge tassel presents a state of art craftsmanship in both shape, color and uniformity.
