Athos

An Athos bead refers to two different items: the Athos® par Puca® bead, a 3-hole, flat-backed, domed Czech glass bead measuring approximately 20x10mm used in jewelry making, or a bead from a Mount Athos prayer rope (komboloi) made from natural materials like mace wood or frankincense. The bead's specific type depends on whether it's used in jewelry (par Puca) or for spiritual purposes (Mount Athos).
