A
rosary is often mistaken for a necklace to persons unfamiliar with the Catholic
tradition of praying the rosary on beads. So, at Genesis 3:15 Creations we have
created rosary necklaces which can be used for prayer, but can
also serve as a beautiful external witness of our faith. St Francis of Assisi once said something
like this: “Spread the Gospel and use words if you must.” As holy reminders, our
beautiful rosary necklaces will prompt questions and comments, which can serve
as springboards for sharing our living faith with others.
Currently, we hand craft two different styles of rosary necklaces. A
magnetic hematite necklace is created with 6mm magnetic hematite beads separated
by silver-lined glass bugle beads and 3 mm Czech glass beads. This rosary is
crafted on flexible, nylon-coated stainless steel wire. This five decade pattern
is interspersed with faceted hematite, magnetic “Our Father” beads along the
way. It is made to be worn as a single- or double-stranded necklace and it
closes in the front with heavy duty magnetic, faceted hematite beads.The sterling silver crucifix and
miraculous medal are suspended from the magnetic clasp to lie on the chest in a
beautiful central position. This style of rosary necklace is also created using
gold magnetic beads, which can be worn with either gold or silver
jewelry.
If you
desire more color in your jewelry, we create rosary
necklaces using rainbow and pastel pearl magnetic beads. These pieces of
jewelry are very versatile and can either be worn single stranded as a necklace
or triple stranded (wrapped three times) around the wrist as a bracelet.
The
pastel magnetic pearl rosary necklace is created with an alternating pattern of
lavender, light blue, light pink, lilac and aqua beads. The beads are separated by small Czech
glass beads and high-quality, lead-free pewter spacers. It has five complete decades and is
completed by a decorative magnetic clasp centered around a sterling silver
miraculous medal and crucifix. When worn as a necklace, the crucifix and
miraculous medal lie gracefully on the chest.
The rainbow magnetic rosary necklace is made with beautiful rainbow
beads of purple, green, blue and silver. These beads are versatile and will
compliment many items in your wardrobe. It is available in two bead sizes: 4 mm and 6mm beads. The 4 mm size is dainty and fits smaller
wrists from 5 to 6 inches in diameter. The 6 mm size fits wrists from 6 to 8 inches in diameter.
No
matter what style or color you decide upon, you will treasure this unique
necklace for years to come!
