St. Joseph Chaplet in Hematite
St. Joseph Chaplet in Hematite
This dark grey hematite are fantastic, heavy-weight beads. Man-made from iron, they are remarkably uniform and very nice quality. They have a superb polish and being made of iron, are ultra-durable and long lasting. Meanwhile, the white dendritic opal Pater beads have been left uncapped to show off their brilliant clean white and translucent appeal, and to give an otherwise hefty piece a feeling of delicacy.
The warm brown fumed red brass wire and rings are a lovely match with the hematite beads, and come together to make a durable, heavy-built rosary with cool greys and whites and warm bronze tones. 21 gauge wire wraps secure the Pater beads. This piece is quite heavy due to the dense hematite beads, so is suitable for someone who likes a solid, satisfying chaplet that is easy to keep track of and very easy to pray.
