Mastercrafted Vintage Catalin Corkscrew-Form Object Tasbeeh (Vintage Bakelite) - WATD1082

Crafted from Vintage Catalin (Vintage Bakelite), this distinctive tasbeeh stands out with its deep tones, reddish-cognac color transitions that become more visible under light, and its collectible character derived from material repurposed from a vintage object.

The semi-translucent structure of the beads reveals rich layers of color from different angles. Its elongated, finely detailed imam bead and the metal object detail at the tassel complete the tasbeeh’s distinctive appearance.

• Vintage Catalin (Vintage Bakelite): A vintage synthetic material highly valued in collectible tasbeehs today. The limited availability of material recovered from old objects distinguishes these pieces from standard contemporary production.

• Corkscrew Object Origin: The raw material used for this tasbeeh was obtained from a vintage corkscrew object. Here, “corkscrew” refers to the material’s original form rather than the cut or shape of the beads.

• Cognac & Reddish Tones: Although the beads appear dark at first glance, under light they reveal semi-translucent transitions in reddish, brown, and cognac tones.

• Detailed Imam Bead: The long, graduated imam bead features refined turning details that complement the overall character of the tasbeeh.

• Mastercrafted: Expertly crafted by Ömer Bozkurt, the tasbeeh is finished with well-balanced bead proportions and carefully refined surfaces.

• Bead Size: 8 × 12.5 mm

• Collectible Character: The limited nature of vintage Catalin, its origin from a vintage corkscrew object, distinctive color depth, and refined craftsmanship make this tasbeeh a remarkable piece for private collections.

The key elements that contribute to the value of this tasbeeh are its vintage Catalin material, its origin from an old object, its distinctive depth of color, and its refined craftsmanship.
