Picture Jasper Rosary in White Bronze
Picture Jasper Rosary in White Bronze
Warm, energetic picture jasper is always a favorite, and makes for a lovely match with the dark tones of white bronze parts and oxidized wire. The picture jasper beads are fine quality, and have endless details reminiscent of the old wild west or sandy deserts. The warm tones of these beads look fantastic next to the white bronze crucifix and center.
The silver filled wire and rings are hand oxidized to darken them to a warm gray, which is a nice match to a blackened chain. The Pater beads were carefully selected to balance the look of the full piece, and have been finished with smaller, gunmetal caps so the focus can remain on the beads. Since it is pre-oxidized, this piece is very well suited to every day carry or travel without much extra tarnish. The white bronze crucifix and center will eventually tarnish to a warm yellow-gold color.
