DETAILS
A prayer strand from Taşhan, a workshop 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 an Ottoman tughra cipher. It is finished with püskül, the tassel finishing the strand. Taşhan keeps its own record of this strand, where availability is confirmed case by case.
