The Ave beads in this striking vintage
style rosary are 8mm cloisonne jasper. These unusual beads are
comprised of dark translucent stone mixed with adventurine glass. Many
of these beads have dimples and depressions which only add to the
vintage look of the rosary. The Pater beads are 9mm handmade bronze Bali
beads. They are a perfect match for the jasper. The hand cast
bronze crucifix and center are exact replicas of antique pieces. The
wire is antiqued bronze wire. Please click here to learn more about this rosary and please visit my shop, HolyNameRosaries.com to see more of my unbreakable, wire wrapped rosaries and prayer beads.

The Three Hail Marys devotion has enjoyed a long
history in the church. The first known person to engage in this prayer
is St. Anthony of Padua. He was followed by many saints and doctors
of the church, among whom was St. Melchtilde. St Gertrude wrote of the
Apparition that St. Melchtilde experienced with the Three Hail Marys
devotion . Later, St Gertrude, herself experienced an apparition of the
Blessed Virgin who promised a good death to anyone who practiced the
devotion. Please visit my shop, HolyNameRosaries.com to view more of my 3 Hail Mary Chaplets.
