The Ave beads in this rosary are 8mm Connemara Marble beads imported directly from Ireland. While there are 4 different kinds of marble indigenous to Ireland, Connemara Marble is the only one that is most commonly associated with the Emerald Isle. These beads are an olive green with darker bands and patches of serpentine. They have a waxy surface which is one of the characteristics of Connemara Marble. The Pater beads are 12mm Swarovski crystal pearls. Swarovski pearls are high quality simulated pearls. They have a crystal center and are covered with 4 layers of nacre (pearly coating) which gives them a beautiful luster.
The shamrock center is sterling silver. The Celtic crucifix is white bronze. It has the Celtic Knot motif which has long been an Irish symbol of immortality. The wire is 99% pure silver plated onto pure copper.
