Regular price $55.00 Sale

  • Prayer beads for Athena, Greek goddess of wisdom, war, fiber arts and other crafts
  • Devotional beads for prayer and meditation, may be worn as a necklace
  • Approximately 33" (84 cm) in length, made with 6mm frosted glass, natural materials may vary in appearance
  • Made by hand with love and care at a very small home-based business

This set of Athena prayer beads consists of four sets of twelve beads each on the loop, each set separated by a larger bead. Joining the string is an additional bead and a pendant, a modern interpretation of the ancient Athenian tetradrachm coin bearing the goddess' owl.

It is made with 6mm translucent light blue frosted glass beads and silver-toned metal divider beads, separated by silver-toned metal spacer beads, and glass seed beads to provide a comfortable transition from one bead to the next and to make the piece lightweight, supple, and easy to handle. The loop itself is approximately 33" (83.8cm) in circumference. It is designed to be used in prayer and meditation, to decorate an altar or shrine, and/or to adorn a statue. 

The beads can also be worn slipped over the head as a necklace. If you plan to wear it, please make sure a 33" (83.8cm) loop will fit easily over your head, as this piece has no clasp (although it can be made with one if desired--please contact me for information on customization!)

The beads come with a prayer to Athena, and with a cotton muslin bag for storage.

You can, of course, use the beads with any prayers, or for any god or gods, that you choose or that resonate with you.
