Blue Tigers Eye and Sterling Silver Rosary

This rosary is made with gorgeous 8mm blue tiger eye as the AVES. I tried to capture the mottled color in these beads, but they are so dark it was hard to photograph, but they are gorgeous! The color makes this rosary perfect for either a man or a woman.

The Pater beads are lantern shaped white turquoise capped with Bali-like flower bead caps and double wrapped with wire so that the bead is set in the wire and doesn't turn.

The focal piece in this rosary is the beautiful sterling silver crucifix and center. They are both ornate and have flowers at the points. Please zoom in to see the detail. The crucifix is a very solid crucifix.

This is a wire wrapped rosary made by wrapping each bead two and a half times. The wire I used is silver plated and coated wire in 20 gauge which is heavy enough to wrap the bead and keep it from breaking for the life of the rosary. For this reason I will guarantee this rosary for as long as you have it.

This rosary should last and become a family heirloom to be passed on through generations.
