Description
This rosary is made in the Roman Catholic style with five decades of ten beads. The decade beads are 8 mm sodalite stone beads. The larger beads are 10 mm black obsidian stone beads. The connector, the crucifix, and the small (3 mm) round beads are imitation nickel (zinc) plated brass beads with small (4 mm) black obsidian beads as accents. The entire rosary is strung on 49-strand wire with a nylon coating.
The connector and crucifix are antiqued silver plated and the connector is a Miraculous Medal, also known as the Medal of the Immaculate Conception. The crucifix is 35 mm tall, and the full rosary is approximately 19 inches long when fully stretched out.
Sodalite beads are made from natural stone and therefore contain natural color variations from bead to bead, but they are most a deep blue-violet color with white streaks of calcite.
This item comes in a gift box suitable for gift giving.
Although I have done my best to photograph the color of this item accurately, please allow for variations in monitor settings and for the fact that the photo is taken under high powered lights.
