The pearl, as the 'most precious jewel,' is used as a symbol of salvation, which is worth more than all the treasures of the earth. 'The Kingdom of Heaven,' said Christ, according to Matthew 13:45, 'is like unto a merchant man, seeking goodly pearls; who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had, and bought it.' Elsewhere in Matthew, the pearl represents the word of God: 'Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet...' [Matthew 7:6].
The Hail Marys in this rosary are 7mm smooth, round White Freshwater Pearls. The Our Fathers are 8mm Ruby beads that are tipped with Ornate Sterling Silver Bead Caps. It carries a 2" Ornate Crucifix that may be engraved.
This Rosary & ALL my Rosaries are made from Sterling Silver wire, handmade loops, and a closed jump ring between each bead to keep your Rosary from crimping. The Center and Crucifix are solid Sterling Silver, so you are guaranteed an heirloom quality Rosary to pray your prayers throughout the decades.
Your rosary will come packed in a velvet-lined, handmade pouch and a cardboard box with padding. The pouch fabric and colors will vary for each rosary and is my special treat for you.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have ANY questions or concerns BEFORE purchasing.
I make custom Rosaries all the time, so if you want something different or specific please do not hesitate to reach out. I personally do not engrave the crucifix, but I can have it done for you for an extra fee.
10% of all my proceeds go to support the Franciscans who take care of the holy sites in Jerusalem.
