While arhat carvings are typically rendered in bodhi seed, carvings in amber are rare and highly valued. Here, the arhat carvings are set in mother-of-pearl amber – amber embedded with fragments of abalone shell, a technique also used in the fine inlay work of high-end acoustic guitars, requiring considerable skill to apply to frets and bodies. This mother-of-pearl amber is created by compressing small amber fragments and embedding shell pieces during the shaping of the larger beads. This rosary is offered as a limited-edition item.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eProduct Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eItem Number: Q440318191018\u003cbr\u003eParent Bead (Oyadama): Approx. 0.79 in (2.0 cm) – Mother-of-Pearl Amber (Carved Arhat)\u003cbr\u003eMain Beads (Shudama): Approx. 0.59 in (1.5 cm) – Compressed Amber\u003cbr\u003eTop Bead (Tendama): Approx. 0.39 in (1.0 cm) – Mother-of-Pearl Amber\u003cbr\u003eBead Count: 18 Beads\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kohgen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48174648721645,"sku":"Q440318191018","price":987.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0713\/3003\/7997\/files\/Q440318191018_1.jpg?v=1790756589","url":"https:\/\/shop.kohgen.com\/products\/mens-prayer-beads-arhat-mother-of-pearl-amber-18-beads","provider":"Kohgen","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
