Spessartite Garnet Rosary
Spessartite Garnet Rosary
These gorgeous spessartite garnets are a lovely deep red orange. They are very “clean” stones, with few internal marks and very high transparency. The 9.5mm Pater beads are slightly darker red, and make bold focal points. The vibrant red stones make this rosary lively and bright.
Small loops and short chain segments give this piece a dense and clustered look. The Edwardian crucifix features wind-swept petal details on the arm ends, and the two hearts center has superb depictions of the Sorrowful Heart of Mary, and the Sacred Heart of Jesus on the face and reverse. This darling rosary would make a fine gift for a close friend or family, or a perfect addition to your collection!
