An exceptionally substantial antique Bakelite amber rosary, handcrafted during the 1930s with great care and devotion. This outstanding piece features large, uniformly shaped beads in the distinctive warm amber tone of genuine Bakelite — a material prized by collectors for its rich colour, smooth texture, and historical significance as one of the first synthetic plastics. At 130.3 grams, this is one of the heaviest and most impressive Bakelite rosaries available, with a wonderful weight and presence in the hand. In very good condition overall — please note some beads have small chips, visible in the photos — but remains a remarkable collector's piece for its age and size. Sourced from a European private collection and authenticated by our 3rd generation antique specialists at Kingdom of Antique Arts, Vienna.
