Baha'i prayer beads, 19 and 5 prayer beads, hand-wired, stainless steel pins, glass pearls, Ocean colors, Summer themed, nautical charms

I made this set of prayer beads with Summertime and the beach in mind.
The colors are the colors of the sand and the sea.

This 19 and 5 set of Baha'i prayer beads is made with glass pearls, a gemstone point, and a trio of silver-toned metal charms.

All findings and charms in this set of prayer beads are silver toned metal.
The eye pins are Stainless steel.

The beads are hand-wired on eye pins using my trusty little looper tool.

The 19 smaller beads are 10mm glass pearls in brown and blue.

The 5 large counter beads are 12mm glass pearls in ivory.

At the five bead end are 3 silver-toned metal charms.
They are a clam shell, a seashell, and a seahorse.
The charms have lobster claw clasps and can be removed and used as zipper pulls, etc.

The other end has a Picture Jasper gemstone point.

This set of prayer beads is 18 1/2 inches long from end to end.

All prayer beads will come in a small organza bag for safe storage.


-------------------------------------------------------------

The Baha'i faith was founded in the mid-1800s by a Persian holy man named Baha'u'llah. Persons of Baha'i faith recite Allah-u-Abha, a form of God's name, 95 times a day. Baha'i prayer beads consist of some factor of 95. The 19 beads, when counted 5 times, make 95. The smaller 19 beads count the recitation of God's name and the larger 5 beads keep track of the number of repetitions of the 19.
The spacer beads are decorative and are not counted.

Much more information about Baha'i, the history, symbolism, and how to pray using the beads will be added.
