Black Amber Prayer Beads (19+5)

These prayer beads are made of unknotted 8x12 rice shaped natural jet beads (black amber) in a circular 19+5 configuration with a sterling silver Turkish scourge mesh medallion at the end of the tail. Scourge mesh is a technique of using extremely thin multiple strands of sterling silver to make the chains and braid the tails. It is an art from the Baltic Sea area that has been passed down for thousands of generations.
