These awesome hawks eye beads have inky-dark blacks and cool grey highlights. These stones have superb chatoyancy, even in a dimly lit room they still look as if the blacks and greys shift and move while you handle them. They have a silky smooth polish, and are very satisfying to handle and admire.

The white bronze crucifix and center have been left with their characteristic golden-hued tarnish, with the yellow tones popping out beautifully against the cool grey and black beads. The wire and rings is hand-pulled and oxidized silver filled wire. The dark grey wire has a durable and sturdy finish which does not rub off or transfer, and will grow darker and stronger with time.

This is a classically styled piece with sturdy construction, well suited to a Lady or Gentleman who wants an understated yet “cool” rosary!
