Easy to Process, Extremely Chic Appearance
Onyx stone gets its name from the district of Erzurum, where it is extracted. Because it is very easy to process and its appearance is extremely chic, it is frequently used in the art of rosary making. The onyx stone rosary model is almost one of the most preferred among all rosary models. So, how is an onyx stone rosary made?Today, the number one production center for onyx rosaries is Erzurum, where the stone is extracted. Erzurum hosts many famous rosary masters who have made a name for themselves in Turkey in terms of onyx stone rosary production, and the highest quality stones extracted here are processed and sold worldwide. To make an onyx stone rosary, the stones must first be processed. The onyx stone is carved and, after being separated into pieces to be processed on a lathe, holes are opened on specially developed lathes. These holes have either a pointed or a flat appearance. The reason for this is that the stones are shaped by rotating them on the lathe.
The Most Important Factor Increasing the Price
The most important factor increasing the price of onyx rosaries is the tassel (imame) section. The price increases for onyx stone rosaries because the tassel is specially produced, and the craftsmanship increases as it is not factory-made. Therefore, one should not trust rosaries sold at very low prices and claimed to be made of onyx stone. The easiest way to understand if an onyx stone rosary is real is to examine the rosary beads and look for the marks from when they came off the lathe. The corners of the hole area on real onyx stone rosary beads must be pointed or flat. Also, as it is a natural stone, if a hot needle is touched to it, the stone should absolutely not be deformed. Another easy way to understand if an onyx stone rosary is real is to rub the stone on paper. If black and/or brown marks form on the paper after this friction, this also indicates that your rosary is a real onyx rosary. Onyx rosaries, which are nowadays most often confused with Russian stone imitations, should be purchased from reliable websites or stores. Rosaries sold at very cheap prices should be approached with suspicion, and never shop from unknown places solely because they are cheap. These are important rules to pay attention to in order to avoid being deceived.
