More Details
The most noticeable feature of the Year of Saint Joseph Rosary is its center medal. The back has the dates and a few words from the Litany of St. Joseph prayer. We don’t often cage-wrap rosaries which makes it more unique. The wraps of wire are easier to see in the second image. The manufactured hematite beads are metallic-based and heavy. The temperature of the beads slowly warms up when in contact with warm hands. As you pray with them, you will feel their warmth. Wire-wrapped bows connect the rosary.
About Cage-Wrapping
What is Cage-Wrapping?
Cage-wrapping adds stacks of rings and a gentle swirl of wire across the beads.
There are many forms of cage-wrapping, but we prefer the one shown in the photo. We use a single snug wrap to secure the beads. Also, we flush-cut the ends of the wire to keep them smooth.
Extra Detail
We will sometimes cage-wrap the Our Father beads. It sets them apart and adds a unique flair to the rosary. The wire swirls around the caps and accent beads, holding them in place.
Which Beads We Use
We do not save this wiring method only for gemstone beads. We also use it with glass and hematite beads. Yet, since it takes more wire and time to make, there is an added cost.
Hidden Beauty
The beauty of every rosary, whether humble or ornate, is in the way we pray with it. Prayer is a gift of love.
A rosary that gently guides our prayers forward as we move our hands across the beads is its hidden beauty.
