St. Benedict Rosary in Dragon's Blood Jasper
St. Benedict Rosary in Dragon's Blood Jasper
This hearty rosary is made of dragon’s blood jasper, mined in Australia and so called for its green and red patterns, which look like the skin and blood of a dragon. The beads are a vibrant mix of dark and light green, with areas of dull crimson dotting them. The color palette looks wonderful alongside bronze parts.
We chose a bold & heavy Benedictine crucifix, in ancient Byzantine Style, and a large St. Benedict center with superb and sharp details and symbols on the face and reverse. The large flat cable chain allows the rosary to flow and move with grace despite the size of the piece, and the rosary fills a medium large hand comfortably. This piece has fantastic style and a very unique look, and would make a fantastic gift for someone who has larger hands or wants a bigger rosary with bold style.
