Earth Day Orthodox prayer beads, Orthodox Chotki, Komboskini, stainless steel, turquoise and white, detailed crucifix, Spring colors

This Chotki is made with turquoise blue and white glass beads.
It's wired on Stainless steel eye pins and has a detailed crucifix.
I made these for Earth Day, but they could be used for any occasion.

Chotki, sometimes also known as Komboskini, are used in Eastern Orthodox Christianity.

Most Komboskini are made with wool and are knotted.

These Chotki are a more modern variation and are hand-wired like rosaries.

This set is hand-wired using eye pins and my trusty little looper tool.
This is not a store-bought rosary chain.

This Chotki has 3 sets of 11 beads separated by 3 larger beads.

The smaller beads are 8mm turquoise blue glass drawbench beads. They have black swirls on them.

The large beads are white oval glass beads.

The cross is a silver-toned, well-made, detailed crucifix.
It measures 49x33mm.
25.4mm is about 1 inch.


This set of prayer beads measures 13 1/4 inches long from the center top of the Chotki to the bottom of the crucifix.

All findings and crucifixes are plated base metal unless specified otherwise and are nickel, lead, and arsenic-free.

If you would prefer a plain cross instead of a crucifix, please let me know and I will swap it out for you.

Custom orders are welcome.

Silver, gold, copper, brass, or gunmetal toned metal can be used.
Stainless steel findings are also now available.

Many more bead and glass pearl choices are available.

Gemstones and Sterling Silver findings and crucifixes are also an option but will require longer to ship.

This Chotki will come with a complimentary organza bag for safe storage.

More info on the Eastern Orthodox Christianity, including Greek and Russian Orthodox, will be added at a later date.

Information on how to pray using the beads will also be added.
