The "T" shaped hole does suggest a prayer bracelet. However, the carnelian colored beads are different sizes. In my experience, a Chinese prayer bracelet has 18 perfectly matched beads in size and color, except for the one with an extra hole for the tassel and perhaps a marker opposite the tassel like the oval one in the picture. And then there may be additional decorative beads at the bottom of the tassel.
