Men's Prayer Beads, Black Persimmon & Jade, 18 Beads, Limited Edition

Men's Prayer Beads, Black Persimmon & Jade, 18 Beads, Limited Edition

Black persimmon is a variety of Japanese persimmon wood, distinguished among fine hardwoods such as ebony and rosewood by its especially vivid, clearly defined grain. The wood earns its reputation as a premium material because of its rarity: only about one in a hundred persimmon trees felled yields wood with this dramatic black patterning, a probability that has long made it prized for fine crafts such as luxury tea caddies and ornamental objects, thanks to its hardness and rich luster. This piece pairs its calm, understated black persimmon main beads with genuine jade, a stone renowned in its own right as a fine natural material. Only one piece is available.
