Each chalcedony Hail Mary bead is double capped with Sterling rings, and looped on heavy 19g wire.

The 12mm peanutwood Our Father beads are double capped with Bali Sterling star spacers, then wire wrapped into the soldered Sterling chain.

The heavy wire construction of this rosary allows the loops to roll smoothly within each other. The ultra-glassy bead polish augments the wonderful drape of this piece.

SOLD, thank you!

Peanutwood begins its fossilization in the sea, where creatures bore through the wood, it sinks, and over millennia, turns to stone. The chalcedony is moderately priced, but the peanutwood is high end, and this piece is heavy with costly silver (crucifix in triple digits). Stunning!
