Tasbih • Tasbeeh • Masbaha • Worry Beads
This exceptional tasbih is crafted for serious collectors. The large Bakelite beads, the balance in hand, and the clear, satisfying clicking sound create the exact tactile experience Bakelite enthusiasts seek.
The beads display a beautiful apricot tone and, like quality Amber Bakelite, they will develop a deeper and richer color over time, increasing their visual character as they age.
This tasbih is made from Amber Bakelite (phenolic resin). It is NOT natural Baltic amber and should not be confused with natural amber. Please read carefully and feel free to ask questions before purchasing.
A true antique tasbih must be over 100 years old and crafted from antique material. My goal is to present accurate, honest information for knowledgeable collectors.
The large bead size, the distinctive Bakelite sound, the evolving apricot color, and the heavy 925 silver tassel transform this tasbih from a simple prayer bead set into a top-tier elite collector’s masterpiece.
