Mostly made of ebony wood with traces of silver inlay, with an occasional glass trade bead, agate, and lead beads, these venerable beads almost make you feel the desert sand they come from. They started their life as prayer beads imitating black coral prayer beads, and have long become a highly desirable cost-effective alternative to black coral in jewelry design. Also collectible. This listing is for ONE strand. It shows 4 strands, labeled E-H. There are more strands available in other listings. The strands differ in length from about 26" to 32". Ebony beads are about 8x7mm, the other beads vary. The Thumbnail black background photo is of a representative strand. The white background photos show details of specific strands. You can choose a specific strand at checkout. STRAND E: 71 rondelle ebony beads (about 7x10 mm), 1 imam bead (55mm), 19 glass beads STRAND F: 100 rondelle and saucer-shaped ebony beads (about 3-5mm by 10-12mm), 1 imam bead 40mm), 7 glass beads STRANDS G,H: SOLD Weights and sizes are approximate.

The black background photos are taken in the strong lab light, and would be representative of what they would look like in the evening electric light. Some of the photos are backlit to emphasize their translucency. Note that monitor settings strongly affect the way the colors look.
