Handmade Begleri with Old Egyptian Sudurus and “Masticha” Beads and 925 Sterling Silver

This handmade Sudurus Masticha begleri is a distinctive creation combining old Egyptian beads with handmade beads and fittings crafted from 925 sterling silver. The carefully arranged variation in materials, shapes, and dimensions gives the piece a traditional character, a refined appearance, and an interesting rhythm during handling.

The begleri includes three old Egyptian Sudurus beads in two different sizes. Two of the Sudurus beads measure approximately 15.3 × 18 mm, while the third measures approximately 15.9 × 16.5 mm. Their different proportions create a balanced composition and contribute to the smooth, controlled movement of the begleri between the fingers.

The design is complemented by four old Egyptian “Masticha” beads, each measuring approximately 14.5 × 14 mm. The combination of Sudurus and “Masticha” beads highlights the character of these old materials and gives the begleri an authentic, timeless appearance. The arrangement has been carefully designed to preserve both visual harmony and a pleasant handling experience.

Two handmade 925 sterling silver beads, measuring approximately 11.2 × 11.7 mm, have been placed among the Egyptian beads. Together with the remaining 925 sterling silver fittings, they add subtle brilliance and refined detail without overshadowing the distinctive beauty of the old beads.

With an overall length of 23.5 cm and an approximate weight of 28 grams, this handmade Sudurus Masticha begleri is well-balanced and pleasant to handle. The repeated movement of the beads can offer enjoyable moments of relaxation, concentration, and creative activity throughout the day.

This is an excellent choice for personal use, for collectors of old Egyptian beads, or as a distinctive gift for someone who appreciates traditional begleri and carefully handcrafted objects.
