Sinking Pontianak... I'm smitten!Brother Farid of La Maison Khenata made this happen
this looks alot like a kokka/baobab wood tasbeeh, most kokka beads are of similar shape too.Tasbeeh/rosary gifted by a teacher.
I myself have some bracelets of Oud and Sandal. And recently get the beads carved from the wood I myself provided to the respected carpenter.
I want guidance regarding shine on beads that we see in pictures. Is it due to their being saturated with intrinsic oil, or is it due to giving the bead oil massage to look good?
I am not talking about some specific rosary or beads, rather my concern is the products available on the market.
Awesome bracelet!I have seen some Chinese sellers use baby oil unfortunately. If it has too much shine it’s definitely oil. For me I don’t care much about the shine or appearance, I like mine for aroma. Infact I like the raw appearance a bit.
