More Details
We wrapped the Black Onyx Gemstones on our St. Jean Vianney Rosary. As a result, the beads sit further apart and are easier to handle.
Pope Pius XI canonized him in 1925 and named him the patron of parish priests four years later. One of the inspiring things he said was, “We should consider moments spent before the Blessed Sacrament as the happiest moments of our lives.”

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.
