Grape Purple Chalcedony + White Crystal

This handmade rosary invites devotion to the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist. The 8 mm grape-purple chalcedony aves allude to wine that becomes the blood of Christ, while the larger 10 mm white glass crystal rondelle paters—capped in silver—shine like pure light between the decades. At the heart of the rosary is a finely detailed silver and glass cabochon centerpiece depicting the Blessed Sacrament in a monstrance, adored by angels. Five Czech garnet glass teardrops cascade from the rosary, four from the centerpiece and one from the crucifix, a reminder of the five wounds of Christ. A classic silver crucifix completes the piece.

A beautiful companion for Adoration, Holy Hours, or daily prayer—made to help the heart rest before Him who is truly present.

MATERIALS

Chalcedony is a microcrystalline variety of quartz (SiO₂) that occurs in many colors, often with a waxy luster. It includes popular gemstones like agate, carnelian, and jasper, and has been used for thousands of years in jewelry and carvings.

Crystal glass is a high-quality man-made glass, often containing additives to increase its brilliance, sparkle, and refractive index.
