Rare Indian Amber Prayer Beads – Set of 3 Rosaries / Tesbih / Misbaha A rare set of three Indian Amber prayer beads (Rosaries / Tesbih / Misbaha), beautifully crafted from natural amber and featuring a distinctive natural color gradient ranging from rich red and reddish-brown tones to warm golden honey amber. Each rosary consists of 33 amber beads, traditionally designed for prayer, meditation, and collection. The beads are primarily round-shaped, with a standard bead size of approximately 18 × 15 mm. Some additional amber beads and pieces are larger than the stated 18 × 15 mm size, adding character, variety, and uniqueness to each rosary. The natural amber displays a beautiful range of colors, including deep red, reddish amber, reddish-brown, orange, golden, and warm honey tones. The beads feature natural variations in color, transparency, patterns, inclusions, and internal details, making every bead and each rosary unique. The rosaries were carved by a carver named “Nazeer.” Details: * Quantity: 3 Rosaries * Beads per rosary: 33 beads * Total beads: 99 beads * Bead shape: Round * Main bead size: Approximately 18 × 15 mm * Some beads/pieces: Larger than 18 × 15 mm * Color: Natural amber with a beautiful gradient from rich red and reddish-brown to golden and warm honey tones * Rosary 1 weight: 181.70 g * Rosary 2 weight: 254.19 g * Rosary 3 weight: 420.19 g * Total weight: 856.08 g * Suitable for: Prayer, meditation, collecting, and appreciation of natural amber craftsmanship Treated / heat-treated amber.
