Collectors of handmade Kazaz jewelry and prayer beads
Worth noticing
The navigation counts 40 Kazaz works, four jewelry pieces, and eight drawings made before the gold is worked.

Field notes

The site maps its work into 40 Kazaz pieces, four jewelry pieces, and eight drawings, and includes a section framed as moving from drawing to finished work. Its craft notes describe fine wire and tiny knots as making flaws more visible, while a featured 99-bead coral tesbih is described as hand-made with a 24-karat-gold Kazaz tassel. Several showcased works carry the status “found its owner,” so the page does not establish that every pictured piece remains available.
