Chinese Prayer Beads

I am assuming that these are prayer beads. There are small polished orange, brown and black beads with larger carved beads at intervals like station beads of a rosery.  Looks like the cord is red silk with a knot between each bead.  The Geshia is carved ivory standing on an carved opaque brown stone.  The final is a little man carved in a brown, maybe wooden bead.

Good
