By matting the gloss of ebony, its natural texture is preserved, and the more you use it, the more it fits comfortably in your hand and the deeper the color of its texture will become. This rosary has both mountain crests carved in detail and carefully into such ebony, allowing you to feel the merit close to you at all times. The tassels are made of elegant pure silk tassels braided with two colored strings. They come with a tag from the Kyoto Rosary Manufacturing Wholesale Cooperative, which is only permitted to be attached to traditional "Kyoto prayer beads." This is a masterpiece made by a Kyoto prayer bead maker using his expert skills. Comes with a "Kyoto prayer bead maker production certificate" issued by Takita Shoten, proof of Takita Shoten's brand quality. If you have any questions, please feel free to email us.
