DETAILS
This prayer strand comes off the bench at Taşhan in Erzurum. It is worked in oltu taşı — the black jet mined at Oltu, outside Erzurum — a soft stone that hardens under polishing. The listing names a crescent and star. Taşhan keeps its own record of this strand, so wholesale terms come from them.
