These excellent cerise garnets have a vibrant red color. They cast a lovely “flash” when they are in the light, and shift to a dark moody red in the shade. The mirror-fine polish is smooth and reflective, and highlights the deep natural color of the stones. The large 12 millimeter almandine garnet Pater beads are a dark, passionate red, and are satisfying to pass through your fingers.

The huge Nouveau style crucifix is one of our favorite pieces, with awesome split arm ends, and a sharply detailed corpus. The round centerpiece features a crisp depiction of the Face of Jesus. Strong 19 gauge wire and 21 gauge wire wraps on the Pater beads guarantee this piece will hold together for years to come. This rosary is hefty and substantial in the hand, weighing in at over 4.1 ounces of solid Sterling silver and genuine garnet. This is an heirloom quality piece, worthy of being the center of any collection.
