Antique Islamic Carnelian Pendant with Silver Mount – Hand-Engraved “Bismillah al-Rahman al-Rahim” A remarkable Islamic pendant featuring a finely carved carnelian (aqeeq) stone inscribed in elegant Arabic calligraphy with the sacred phrase “Bismillah al-Rahman al-Rahim” (In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful).
