More Details
The Saint Joseph Heart Center Rosary has a cheerful set of light green beads. It has classic links with wire-wrapped Our Father beads. During the Year of Saint Joseph, a rosary with his image is an extra reminder to pray for his intercession.
TIP: Brass wire items will keep their original luster when they stay dry. Try storing it with a piece of chalk (non-toxic) or a silica gel pack. You can also store it with an eyeglass cleaning cloth to dry it if needed.
About Gold-Tone Components
Metal Content
We use brass wire for our gold-tone rosaries. Brass is a metal alloy composed of copper and zinc. Although it is a gold colour, it does not contain gold.
We complement our brass wire with plated brass chain and jump rings.
Metal Casting
Metal casting is an ancient process that began as early as 3200 B.C. They poured molten metal into a mold. Once hardened, artisans removed the mold. Then they cleaned the object of any excess material and smoothed out any rough edges. Today, it is the same basic procedure.
Made in Italy
Most of the gold-tone parts we use are die-cast and plated in Italy. Italy has specialized in making rosary components longer than any other country. Crucifixes and center medals usually have the word Italy in raised letters on the back.
Cleaning Tips
We use brass wire for our gold-tone rosaries. It does not have a protective coating like the rest of the rosary because we need to bend and shape it. As a result, the wire will lose its shiny finish with exposure to air, moisture, and the oils in your hands. Click for more cleaning tips.
