Men's St Francis Rosary with Crown of Thorns Crucifix Brown Black

The Ave beads in this handsome rosary are 8mm brown banded agate beads. These striking beads range in color from dark brown to light sand color with every shade in between. No two beads are a like. They have a wonderful translucence which allows the light to shine through them. Some of these beads have imperfections and are not perfectly round. This just adds to the charm of a rosary made with natural stone. The contrasting Pater beads are 12mm black onyx. All of the beads are accented with 3mm bead caps. The center honors St Francis. Both the center and the Crown of Thorns crucifix are made of silver colored metal. The wire is comprised of fine sterling silver plated onto copper.  Please click here to learn more about this rosary and please visit my shop, The Rosary Works, to see more of my wire wrapped, unbreakable rosaries. 

Mary Undoer of Knots Rosary

 

 

Both the Ave beads and Our Father beads are beautiful fire polished rosaline beads from Czechoslovakia. The Ave beads are 8mm faceted beads with silver plated filigree bead caps and the Our Father beads are 12mm faceted beads with silver plated bead caps that have a floral motif. The large Pater beads are multifaceted and are beautiful to look into. The delicate color of these beads is the same as a nice Rose or Blush Wine with a little bit of pink and a little bit of peach. Unfortunately, my photography doesn't do it justice.

The center piece honors Mary, Undoer of Knots which is Pope Francis' favorite aspect of Our Blessed Mother. The intricate cut-out crucifix shows Mary Magdalene and Mary the Mother of Jesus at the foot of the cross. Both the center and the crucifix have "Italy" stamped on the back and both are made of silver colored metal This is a substantial rosary with a nice weight and feel.  Please click here to learn more about this rosary and please visit my shop, Holy Name Rosaries, to see more of my wire wrapped, unbreakable rosaries.

St Francis Rosary with Trinity Crucifix

The Avé beads in this rosary are 8mm red creek jasper beads. Some people refer to this stone as Picasso jasper, but the correct name is red creek. Each of these beads is different from the others but all are various shades of earth tones. Accenting these beads are the12mm white magnesite Pater beads. Magnesite looks very much like white turquoise and many people refer to it as such. Please note that these are two entirely stones. Magnesite is a beautiful but common stone. White turquoise is quite rare and is only mined in the American southwest. Please ask the origin of the stone when purchasing something labeled as white turquoise. The crucifix honors the Trinity with God the Father at the top of the crucifix and the Holy Spirit in the form of a dove behind Our Lord's head. The center honors St Francis of Assisi one of Pope Francis' favorite saints. Both are silver colored metal. This is a nice, heavy rosary with a substantial feel. It would make a wonderful gift or would be great to keep for yourself.
