More Details
The center medal of the Holy Face Rosary has the image of the Holy Face of Jesus from the Shroud of Turin. Pope Leo XIII and Pope Pius XII encouraged this devotion. The theme continues in the Crucifix. Nails are the basis of its design. The beads have a unique cut with stone-finished tips.
How to Choose Good Quality Loops & Connections
Loops
A rosary bends in different directions during prayer. The links will turn without a problem when they are smooth and round. Angled or long, narrow banana-shaped loops will cause the rosary to kink. Good quality rosaries also have uniform loop sizes on both sides of the beads.
Integrity
Unhooked links around the beads are a common structural problem for rosaries. The weight of the beads adds stress to its links. Properly- secured loops need to be tight at every connection. Yet, they will only stay in place if the wire is stiff and strong enough to hold its shape. Loose bead rings are decorative and will not secure the rosary.
CONNECTORS
We secure the Crucifixes and centers on our rosaries with one of three methods.
1. Jump Rings
Our sturdy nickel-plated brass jump rings are heavy-duty and will not let the chain slip through.
2. Wrapped Bows
Wrapped bows have a stem of stacked wire with open loops on each end. Even heavy beads will stay in place with these.
3. Wrapped Bow-Ties
We also use bow-tie connections. They are similar to our wrapped bows only with a small bead at the center.
