Newly listed at HolyNameRosaries.com. The Lazo or Lasso Rosary as it is sometimes called, has Mexican origins. Basically, a Lazo rosary is two full rosaries joined together by one crucifix. It symbolizes the union of the bride and groom in marriage. Traditionally, the godparents or sponsors of the couple getting married place the rosary around the bride's neck and around the groom's neck during the wedding ceremony. Special prayers are then said to join them in Holy Matrimony. After the wedding, one of two things can be done. Some couples keep the rosary so that they can use it to pray together and then later pass it along to their children when they get married. Other couples break the rosary down into two separate rosaries. Then they give one rosary to the bride's mother and the other to the groom's mother as keepsakes of the wedding.
The Pater beads in this rosary are comprised of handmade lampwork beads. This particular style of lampwork is known as wedding cake beads. These beads have an intricate motif of adventurine draped around the white background and adorned with blue, red and yellow flowers. The Avé beads are 6mm white glass beads encased in gold-tone filigree bead caps. The heart shaped Miraculous Medal centers are gold finished pewter. The two tone crucifix is a combination of gold finished pewter and natural colored pewter. I have made this rosary extra long to insure the ease of using it during the wedding ceremony.
