This is a really unique rosary (and not just because I am not using rhinestones for once haha) because I am using a rare stone called Shattuckite for the Our Father. This special stone occurs naturally in these unique metallic blues and is the result of copper silicate replacing another mineral’s crystal structure atom by atom with its own crystal structure. Due to its incredible color and rarity, I used these very expensive stones sparingly in order for this rosary to be more affordable for us average folks. However, if you have a big budget and want to go full out with these unique stones, I can certainly use these stones for the Hail Mary beads as well. Simply click the customization option and let's chat!
This rosary is a smaller type of rosary as I used a 6mm howlite stone for the Hail Mary beads and it is spaced with sterling silver beads. The Shattuckite is an 8mm bead so you know where you are in your prayer by the size of the bead. The centerpiece is a Holy Communion Chalice, which could make this a nice gift for a confirmation rosary. Both the center and the crucifix are made of Italian silver oxide metal. The fittings are sterling silver and this beautiful rosary is set on professional beading wire for strength. If you happen to have a fondness for the standard link or would like a side medal, click the custom order option. This rosary is smaller than the standard sized rosary simply due to the smaller sized howlite bead. So, if you would like a travel-sized rosary that isn't a one decade, this would be a nice option.
God bless!
