More Details
The Rainbow Obsidian Rosary has wire-wrapped gemstone beads. Rainbow Obsidian is a naturally occurring volcanic glass. Magnetite inclusions refract light in different directions. As you pray the rosary, you will notice random sections with a subtle glow. Since it is against a black background, it looks like light grey.
Instead of chain sections, we used tiny, wrapped, sturdy brass beads. We chose them because brass is a similar alloy metal to bronze. Since they both contain copper, they age similarly to create a consistent look as the rosary ages. The spacer bead will develop an antiqued patina along with the bronze.
American artisans cast the bronze Crucifix and center from vintage pieces. This heirloom rosary already looks like a rare antique.
*A $21.75 (CAD) shipping discount is automatic (no promo code needed). We will apply the balance (after shipping costs) to your order.
TIP: Wire-wrapped rosaries will not come unhooked but 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 Bronze
Wire-Wrapped
Our bronze rosaries are wire-wrapped and sturdy. The stacked rings of wire will not come unhooked. It adds extra space between the beads for ease of movement during prayer.
Solid Bronze
We make them with solid bronze. Wire-wrapped bows replace the sections that are usually chain links. We use solid bronze Crucifixes and centers made from vintage or unique originals.
At about half the cost of sterling silver, bronze makes an heirloom rosary more affordable.
Naturally Aged
In their natural form, bronze rosaries look like antiques. Bronze is a metal alloy primarily made of copper. With age and exposure to air, it naturally darkens to rich, earthy tones. Storing it in a closed container between use will slow down this process.
