Tamarind wood Muslim prayer beads.Natural dark brown dense tamarind wood prayer beads with 2 durable matching dark brown tassels made from nylon. Made from the core of the Indonesian tamarind tree known as “galih asem” in Bahasa Indonesia.
The saucer-shaped beads are nice to the touch and are preferred by some over round beads. The beads are lightly polished to present a fine luster. The inside diameter of this tasbih is 20.5 inches (52 cm) so it would not fit over most heads. The alif and dividers (also called imam and muezzins) are elegantly lathed by hand. The added 10-bead counter above the alif is made with 4x6mm beads. Comes in a small gift box for U.S. and Canada customers.
