At 28mm diameter, these rods are an ideal size for prayer beads, bangles, and turned jewelry components. The cylindrical form means less cutting and less material loss compared to working from a flat block — every gram goes further. The consistent yellow amber color runs deep throughout, so every bead cut from these rods will carry the same warm, luminous tone.

Prayer beads — tesbih, misbaha, tasbih, subhah
Rings, bangles, and turned pendants
Custom beads and buttons
Collectors and craftspeople stocking genuine vintage Catalin rod material
All three rods pass the hot water test — authentic Catalin formaldehyde scent confirmed. Genuine vintage material, not new-cast resin, not cherry amber imitation.
