More Details
Our Cobalt Blue Serenity Prayer Car Rosary has the prayer on one side of the medal and praying hands on the other. It has a clasp to attach to a rearview mirror. We wire-wrapped it to last. It is a comfort to have a blessed rosary in your vehicle.
TIP: Wire-wrapped rosaries will not come unhooked. The design will sometimes result in a temporary kink. There are two ways to resolve it: a gentle shake; or lifting and turning the section by hand.

About Wire-Wrapping
An Ancient Skill
Wire-wrapping is a skill dating back to the 11th Century B.C. It is different from making links. While a rosary link involves bending the wire twice per bead, wrapping takes more work. Wire-wrappers bend the wire 8 to 10 times per bead to make stacked piles of rings.
A Comparison
Compared to rosaries with links, it takes more than twice the wire and the time. As a result, wire-wrapped rosaries are more costly. A wire-wrapped Sterling Silver rosary is noticeably more expensive than a linked one.
Cage-Wrapping
Cage-wrapping is the most decorative way to wire-wrap. The artisan embellishes each bead with a gentle swirl of wire.
Connections
Wrapped bows are one of the most practical applications of this technique. They are very reliable. Artisans frequently use them to attach beaded sections to the connector loops.
Although they will sometimes kink, bows will do the extra work necessary to secure a rosary. They can also replace lengths of chain. Above all, they are the most useful as connectors on rosaries with heavy beads.
