Handmade Komboloi with Old Egyptian Sudurus Beads and 925 Silver

This handmade komboloi with Old Egyptian Sudurus beads is an authentic piece of tradition and history, distinguished by its rarity and cultural value. The Sudurus beads were crafted in workshops of the East between 1880 and 1940. Today, they are considered extremely rare and collectible, making each piece a unique treasure for lovers of traditional komboloi.

They are made from a special blend of powdered mastiha resin, frankincense, amber, and bakelite, mixed with turpentine. The result is a warm-toned material with a unique matte finish, a soft touch, and a deep, resonant sound. The selected beads in this komboloi measure 12.5 × 13 mm and are carefully arranged into a harmonious design with a total length of 40 cm and an approximate weight of 59 grams.

The komboloi is strung with solid 925 silver components, and the tassel is made from genuine animal silk, hand-tied with precision and care. Its smooth texture and elegant movement add a refined and understated luxury to the overall composition.

A notable detail is the decorative emblem, featuring a relief of a dove carrying an olive branch – a timeless symbol of peace, harmony, and spiritual calm.

This komboloi is more than just an object; it is a piece of cultural heritage. Ideal for collectors, connoisseurs, and those who appreciate traditional craftsmanship, it offers both lasting value and meaningful presence.
