This is a handmade Mala bead carved from an olive nut. It is highly detailed and you can tell that it was crafted with care. This is a one-of-a-kind bead, as the artist carves each one along the lines of the nut's growth. Mala beads are typically used in prayer and meditation. This particular bead is just over 1" long, 0.5" wide, and 0.5" tall. The wonderful face is smiling and open to friendship.
